Bendel Insurance debunks Tanimu’s transfer rumour

Bendel Insurance have rebuffed claims that Benjamin Tanimu has left the club.

The Benin Arsenals stated this in a press release posted on their social media handle that the center-back remains a player of the club.

Tanimu was reported to have joined Spanish club Lleida Esportiu before the close of the European transfer window.

Bendel Insurance claimed that several clubs have indicated interest in the service of the 21-year-old defender after an impressive performance with the club.

The 2023 Federation Cup winners have, however, authorised the representative of the defender to negotiate with aspiring suitors for the player’s signature.

Insurance maintained that Tanimu remains an integral member of the club as they prepare for the CAF Confederations Cup qualifier.

Bendel Insurance will take on RS Berkene of Morocco on September 16.
