Leganes announced the loan signing of Awaziem on Thursday, August 15 from his parent club Porto. 

The 22-year-old joins his Super Eagles teammate Omeruo who had just signed a five-year deal with the Spanish club after a season on loan at the club. 

Awaziem’s loan move to Leganes is his third from Porto. He played for Nantes in the 2017/2018 season and then for Turkish side Rizespor in second half of the 2018/2019 season. 

Awaziem and Omeruo were part of the Super Eagles squad that won a bronze medal at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
