If he had come to the Nix as say a 22 yr old, a 2 year deal may have been possible. However then what if he'd been a dud?

But he turned 27 a few days ago. He's married (got kids?). Eze knows he has 4-5 years likely left to maximise his football career. He may have extended family back in Nigeria looking for bit of financial assistance. The A League was always basically a shop window. 

Gill/Chiefy did well to scout him in the first place, and the good news is that no other A League club can afford him now either.
