ABRAHAM AYOMIDE MARCUS ANOTHER LEFT FOOTED ATTACKING PLAYER. A PLAYER FOR THE FUTURE. SIMILAR TO BUKAYO SAKA, LOOKS LIKE HE CAN UPSTAGE CHUKWUEZE IF CARE ISNT TAKEN. HE IS DIRECT, SKILLFUL AND KNOWS WHAT TO DO AT ANY GIVEN TIME. STILL JUST 20YEARS AND PLAYING IN PORTUGUESE SECOND DIVISION. BUT HE IS SCORING REGULARLY, WHICH MEANS TEAMS IN THE FIRST DIVISION WILL SOON TAKE NOTICE OF HIM. MORE LIKE THIS PLEASE!
Abraham Marcus. Remember the name, I expect to hear more about this young man in the coming months.
‘Fantabulous’!!! In a league where young stars in the past from this shores have really struggled to impress, (yahaya, chidera eze etc). U must a special breed, because you are doing well’ as a hobby.
Im happy that young Nigerian talents are beginning to show off their skills in the Portuguese league. I hope Abraham Marcus will soon explode unto the big stage.
God will upgrade u to the next level
