Former Super Eagles defender Efe Ambrose has moved on loan to Dunfermline Athletic FC from another Scottish club St.Johnstone.
The 33-year-old Ambrose signed on loan till the end of the season.
Manager John Hughes has had Efe in his sights for a number of weeks and he was delighted to bring him to Dunfermline.
“We got him, I’m absolutely delighted and it’s down to the non-stop persistence of the chairman once again. I don’t know what we are going to do when the chairman steps down because it is all down the chairman, and Efe and St Johnstone to be fair,” he celebrated.
‘The Pars’ boss added his thanks to his St Johnstone counterpart and revealed that Efe has shown a real desire to come and play football at Dunfermline:-
“That is all he wants to do. That experience and that CV, the quality of the human being is going to be massive for Dunfermline. I think he will turn into a fans’ favourite.”
Efe Ambrose is a centre back with experience of 366 senior matches.
These include 169 appearances for Celtic where he played 37 times in the Champions League and the Europa Cup.
In addition, he has 47 full caps for Nigeria and has also represented his country at U20, U23 and Olympic level.
He was a member of the team that won the African Cup of Nations in 2013, playing the full 90 minutes in the final.
