Former John Mikel Obi's Norwegian club, Lyn Oslo, is offering Akwa Ibom State 30% stake in the club thought to have a financial value of about N920m.

If the two parties eventually strike a deal, the Norwegian club will set up an academy in the South-South Nigerian state and will also provide technical and counterpart support to see the team blossom.

Complete Sports gathered that transaction between the club and Akwa Ibom State is getting close to maturity.

The deal is being brokered by a Nigerian agent whose firm has marketing right to source for investors for the club from Nigeria, Africa and the Middle East.

The agent is understood to have links with an ex -Nigeria international pulling the strings for the state which also has a Premier League club in the country.
