I saw a star the first time I saw him between the sticks for the flying eagles.He was so good he brought calmness to the defence,he reminds me of prime Ike Shorunmu.
Congratulations lad!Wishing you laurels with the flying eagles as you’re set to play the toughest game of your career tomorrow,I can only wish you good luck against Argentina and for your future…
If care is not taking u wil hear another flying eagle star just signed for taliya fc of Syria for 10m lira for 2 years ..
Dey wil not know one USA dollar is equal to 2500 lira . That is $4000 for 2 seasons.
Nff kuku don’t care.
More goalkeeping options for the super eagles..
We should never beg any player to play for Nigeria.
Is that not the country Russia is bombing. How come ? … I don’t believe this post .. Belgium,Holland Scotland league dey .even championship.even south American clubs dey ..
This is a foolish move. Ukraine that is under war situation. Some of these boys think abroad means say everywhere good… He hasn’t even thought of the Racism in that country.
The agents of this Nigerian players are working against the progress of the national team…..Any upcoming talent who comes through the ranks most likely makes a very senseless move that will end up derailing the career of that player…..Akinkunmi amoo, Olakunle, Ejuke,Imoh Ezekiel,and many more where destroyed by greedy and mischievous agents…..The NFF should be vetting transfers of Youth internationals to make sure their future is not compromised…….A first choice talented goalkeeper who is currently playing in the world cup signing a 5 year contract with a club in a war zone???Haba no be juju be that?
NFF can not be trusted have you forgotten about DW madness that they turned it into business and even inviting average DW players to eagles just for them to get connection. Every player should be smart and decide right or doom for themselves. If not for the political instability in Ukraine I wouldn’t have said anything because there’s always a start, but why sign up a naive u20 player into a war torn country sake of money the agent is wicked and this boy must wake up and stop that nonsense, what kind of poisonous money is this???
What kind of transfer is this in the middle of a World Cup??? Which kind agent do this one??? Greed and Fear is the only reason behind this impatience!!!
