The defender featured in 29 matches for the Harmony Boys last season.

The move marks Arinze’s first stint outside Nigeria after four seasons in the NPFL.

He helped Kwara United maintain their NPFL status last season.

Kwara United have signed Onyeure Uche Daniel as a direct replacement for Arinze.

Arinze previously played for Bendel Insurance, Lobi Stars and Abia Warriors.

Elsewhere, the Nigeria National League (NNL) will hold its 17th  Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Friday, August 21,  at the Rockview Hotel near Government House in Owerri, the Imo State capital.

Delegates and key football administrators are expected to arrive on Thursday, August 20, ahead of the meeting, with departures scheduled for Saturday, August 22.

Imo State Governor, Senator Hope Uzodinma, will officially open the assembly. The event will draw major football administrators, including Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) president Ibrahim Gusau, alongside club chairmen from across the country.

According to a statement from the league board, stakeholders will review the league’s past operations and deliberate on critical agenda items, including setting a kickoff date for the upcoming season.
