“We lost two matches, but we are still at the top of the league. I hope we will all get back together. We will try to bring our team to the place it deserves together with the new players, the technical team and the Aytemiz Alanyaspor community.
“Awaziem, Aytemiz is now a part of Alanyspor. We are together until the end of the season. I think we will have a good season.”

Congratulations but why do Nigerian players settle for less when you have potentials to be at a top club and also improve as a player. This move surprised me I can’t even lie lol
Awaziem has all the potentials to become the Taribo West of this SE generation. Tough on tackles, good in the air, great ball control and passing. Playing for top teams really brought out the best in Taribo West, who at some point in his career was one of the most valuable defenders in the World.
I hope this guy get an opportunity to play in SERIE A. This will really bring out the best in him.
Awii, congrats and goodluck.
