Joseph Arumala has joined Egyptian Premier League club Al Ittihad on a permanent transfer, Completesports.com reports.
Arumala linked up with the Alexandria-based club from Nigeria Premier Football League, NPFL, side Ikorodu City.
The young striker was one of the standout performers in the NPFL last season, scoring 13 goals, and providing two assist for the Oga Boys.
His impressive performances, however, were not enough to secure continental football for Ikorodu City, who finished fourth in the league.

Arumala arrived at Ikorodu City before the start of the 2025/26 season and quickly established himself as a key member of the team.
The forward’s direct running, pace and eye for goal made him a fan favourite during his time at the Lagos club.
Ikorodu City have now sent a farewell message to the striker following his move to Egypt.
“Good luck in Egypt with @itthadalexsc 🇪🇬 Joseph Arumala.
“We wish you the best ⭐️,” the club wrote on X.
