His direct approach play and ability to beat a man was praised by all and sundry and it was a matter of time before the big boys came knocking considering the Rams’ relegation and financial woes.

Behold a player that our local coaches said was not good enough for our u17……. Behold a player our local coaches refused to take to the u17 world cup in 2019……. How can you be a good coach when you can not spot such a talent right under your nose?……how can you be a good coach when you allow sentiment cloud your judgement?…… our junior team coaches should be watched carefully if we don’t want to lose more Alabas to this greedy practice going on in our junior team camps.
Akp, we have seen that movie played over and over again.
An “abroad kid” is kicked out of our U17 camp for being “not good enough” and 3 years later, he’s signed by a club bigger than the clubs those he was dropped for are playing in.
Hopefully, Finidi George will be able to convince him once again!
Owngaolnigeria even reported that he was humiliated before being chased out…
