Macauley Chrisantus expected to leave Sivasspor [divider]

Nigerian striker Macauley Chrisantus is expected to part ways with Sivasspor after failing to settle in.

The 24-year-old joined Sivasspor on a three-year deal last summer from Spanish second division side Las Palmas.

Despite being tipped as a future star of world football at the 2007 U-17 World Cup, Chrisantus has failed to live up to expectations.

Chrisantus has struggled for playing time at Sivasspor after spending much of the season injured.

Fellow compatriot Micheal Eneramo’s return to Sivasspor has pushed Chrisantus further down the pecking order and due to the foreign player ruling he will find it difficult to get into the team.

Sivasspor are currently in 16th place in the Süper Lig and recently parted ways with head coach Roberto Carlos.

Sergen Yalçın has replaced the former World Cup winner and is undefeated in his last two games.
