Christian Bassogog, Cameroon midfielder, has joined Chinese Super League side Henan Jianye from Aab Fodbold, the Danish club has confirmed.

According to Ceoafrica, earlier this month, the 21-year-old was named player of the tournament as Cameroon won their fifth Africa Cup of Nations trophy (AFCON) in Gabon.

"AaB have sold Bassogog to Chinese club Henan Jianye FC for a record transfer for AaB", the club said in a statement.

Bassogog said the China offer was one he could not refuse.

The Cameroon international started all six games at this year's Nations Cup, scoring in the semi-final as the Indomitable Lions beat Ghana 2-0.

He now joins a growing list of African players moving to the Chinese Super League after Nigerian duo John Mikel Obi and Odion Ighalo joined Tianjin Teda and Changchun Yatai respectively last month.
