Okwuchukwu left Rivers Angels of the Nigeria Women’s Premier League to join San Diego Wave.
The 19-year-old committed to a one-year deal.
After completing a medical and receiving her P1 Visa, International Transfer Certificate, and ITC, the striker will be added to the Wave’s roster.
When Nigeria’s Falconets competed in the 2024 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup, Okwuchukwu attracted attention.
She participated in all four of Falconets’ games, contributing one assist and two goals.
