Congrats young man…! Moving down a step has proven to be a great career decision for you.
He once turned down Nigeria but he has now repented. I encourage coach Rohr to consider him. Unfortunately I doubt if he can make the current squad to the afcon becos methinks the squad is already saturated with hotter and hungrier players. I believe after the afcon the coach can give him a look in. God bless Nigeria.
He probably needs to be more consistent first. 6 goals in ALL competitions the whole season for a striker eyeing international call ups doesn’t really raise an eyebrow. But the fact that he has finally been able to get a full season of top flight football in a permanent setting is a good omen for his career. I think he stayed too long being a “ball boy” at arsenal before leaving his comfort zone. But with the likes of Awoniyi and Osimhen staking a claim as the long term permanent top striking contenders for the SE, Akpom will have to play out his skin to get a look in, talk more of challenging the duo. But a journey of a thousand miles as they say always starts with the first stride.
