In a significant development for the Nigeria Premier Football League, the Federation International Football Association (FIFA) has lifted its ban on Katsina United, enabling the club to register new players. The ban was imposed due to a pay dispute involving former player Mohamadou Souley Salamoun, which has now been resolved.

Salamoun has confirmed that he has received all outstanding salaries from Katsina United, prompting FIFA to revoke the restrictions. This decision marks a turning point for the club, allowing them to enhance their squad ahead of the upcoming season.

In light of the lifted ban, Katsina United has already made strides by signing four new players. The Chanji Boys are reportedly looking to further strengthen their roster before the season kickoff.

Katsina United's season opener is set against Plateau United, where they will aim to make an impactful return to competitive play. With their roster bolstered and spirits high, the team looks poised for a promising season ahead.
