The Rising Stars prodigy Aldrine Kibet is set to join a top Spanish La Liga club after impressing scouts in Europe.
Kenya U20 midfielder Aldrine Kibet is reportedly on the verge of a historic leap in his football career after reportedly completing a €6 million transfer to Spanish La Liga side Celta Vigo.
The 18-year-old prodigy’s meteoric rise has seen him progress from dazzling in local tournaments to capturing the attention of scouts across Europe.
"Kenyan wonderkid Aldrine Kibet has completed a €6 million transfer to Spanish La Liga side Celta Vigo. The 18-year-old U20 star’s move marks a major milestone in his football journey; elevating him from local hero to a rising force on the global stage," reported X user Esther Passaris.
According to sources close to the family, Kibet’s parents travelled to Spain last night as the youngster edges closer to finalising personal terms and completing the necessary paperwork.
