Kano Pillars have confirmed the signing of defender Agu Samuel on a free transfer ahead of the 2026/27 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season.
The experienced defender joins the Sai Masu Gida after the expiration of his contract with Enyimba at the end of last season, bringing valuable top-flight experience to the Kano-based club as preparations continue for the new campaign.
Agu has signed a one-year contract with Kano Pillars and is expected to strengthen the club’s defensive options as they aim to compete strongly in the upcoming NPFL season.
The move marks another addition to Kano Pillars’ squad as the club continues to reinforce key areas ahead of the league’s kick-off. Agu’s experience in the Nigerian top flight is expected to provide stability and depth to the team’s backline.
Kano Pillars will be hoping the defender settles in quickly and plays an important role as the club targets a successful 2026/27 campaign.
The signing underscores the club’s intent to build a competitive squad capable of challenging throughout the season as preparations intensify for the new NPFL campaign.
