Flying Eagles midfielder Daniel Daga has been acquitted of sexual assault by Norway’s Frostating Court of Appeal, Completesports.com reports.
The 19-year-old has been out of action for the past 11 months due to the allegations.
Molde Happy With Verdict
His club, Molde FK, confirmed in a statement on Thursday that Daga is now available for selection again while the parties await the final judgement.
“We have today received information about the Court of Appeal’s ruling. This has been a demanding period for everyone involved, and we want to approach it with respect and consideration for everyone who has been affected,” CEO Vegard Storvik told the club’s official website.

Daga To Resume Playing Again
Daga had previously been sentenced to six months in prison by the Romsdal District Court after being found guilty of sexually assaulting a woman. The lower court also ordered him to pay NOK 10,000 in legal costs.
However, the Court of Appeal overturned that conviction, clearing the Nigerian midfielder of the charge.
“The club recognizes that this has been a serious and stressful matter for everyone affected,” the club further stated.
“Since the indictment was filed, Molde FK has made ongoing assessments based on the situation and the club’s responsibility as an employer. Now that the Court of Appeal’s verdict is in and Daniel Daga has been acquitted, we as an employer consider that Daniel will be available to play for Molde FK in the future.

Thank God for this ruling, my advice is for players to beware of these girls and remember where they’re coming from. This was how our little Messi Amos’s career has been cut short. Abeg make Una marry and carry wife for body if you no fit hold body thank you.
Norway’s Frostating Court of Appeal? Frostating ke? No wonder he is frustrated. They are there to frustrate his destiny. 11 months of intense frustration!
All dis things is down to jealousy. They are so jealous of his big, thick lips. Body dey pepper dem. How can one man have all these lips?
Daga too played right into their hands. Trouble dey sleep, em go wake am. Using those thick lips to kiss young Norwegian girls. You think the Norwegian men are happy to see that?
Next time, keep ya lips to yourself. Na ball we send you go play for there, na another thing you dey do. Stop unnecessary kissing up and dan. Make kasala no burst on top ya head!
