Isaiah Ejeh is reported to be attracting interest from Rivers United ahead of the 2026-27 Nigeria Premier Football League, NPFL, season.

Ejeh is currently a free agent after his stint with Bangladeshi powerhouse Bashundhara Kings.

He previously featured for Kwara United in the NPFL before moving abroad.

Rivers United are exploring defensive options as part of their squad rebuilding process.

The Port Harcourt-based side see Ejeh's experience at home and abroad as a potential boost to their backline.

Ejeh is understood to be keen on a return to the NPFL.

A move to Rivers United will give him the chance to play in the CAF Champions League next season.
