The South Sudan U20 captain is set to join the Spanish third-tier side on loan ahead of the 2025/26 season, which is set to commence on Monday, 25 August, to Tuesday, 30 June 2026.

During the loan period, Tarazona will assume full responsibility for the salary and accommodation of Bichiok.

The season-long loan also includes an option to buy, which will see Nairobi United pocket €35,000 (approximately Ksh5.2 million) should the Spanish club opt to make his deal permanent, as revealed to Mozzart Sport through a source privy to the proceedings.

The Spanish third-tier team will also have a chance to extend the loan for a further season to cover the 2026/27 season, upon which they will pay Nairobi United €5,000 (approximately Ksh745,000) deductive of the €35,000.

Mozzart Sport also understands that Naibois have inserted a sell-on clause in the loan agreement that will see the club entitled to 25% of any net transfer fee received.

According to our source, the loan deal between Tarazona and Naibois has already been signed and will take effect when the Spanish club agrees on personal terms with Bichiok and after the player has completed his medical.

In the agreement between the two clubs, any disputes that may arise between them shall be submitted to FIFA or to the Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS) in Lausanne, Switzerland.

This loan deal comes about a month after the Kakuma Refugee Camp-born utility defender rejected a multi-million move to join South Sudan Premier League champions Jamus SC.

Jamus, who are preparing for the CAF Champions League, had made Bichiok a priority signing and offered him a sign-on fee of $30,000 (approximately Ksh3,870,000) should he join the club.

However, Bichiok had a change of heart after meeting representatives of Naibois' patron, Johnson Sakaja, after the team's Mozzart Bet Cup triumph, who convinced him to stay, promising better terms.
