@ poster

I must be honest with you, it is to late to play professional footbal at your age. All you can play now is jeun jeun (chop chop). Dream of becoming a professional footballer starts from the age of 5 - 7 years. How do u want to start now @ 23yrs? My guy, choose another profession, i will suggest handball or baseball since they all have to do with ball.

Regards

Is it true that somebody @ 23 cannot play a profesional football anymore?

I have a cousing you wants to be an int'l star, i prayed 4 him everyday. does it mean i am waisting my time?

STOP PRAYING YOU PAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED, HE IS TOO OLD.

@poster
Dont let what people say here bring your desire down, If you are really 23, you still have many football years ahead of you. Tell us the country where u live and i will see what i can tell you about where and how to begin.
Re: Football Career by ebelegirl(f): 8:10pm On Apr 14, 2008
Hmm well @ the poster, NEVER SAY NEVER! I think what the other posters are highlighting is that it may be harder for u to get to that level given the fact that a lot of the key players are young. Keep trying but be sure not to put all of your eggs in one basket and have a PLAN B- (Or C,D, E lol) just in case your soccer dream does not come true! Best of luck!

most people that want international careers don't even have a local club, approach your local club sides

Re: Football Career by vanesa(m): 8:13pm On Apr 14, 2008
till now you never dreamt ops now football just try something else and stop wasting time.
Re: Football Career by denony(m): 8:58pm On Apr 14, 2008
My brother as the first poster said, start by reducing your age to 13-14 years, avoid bear bear wink

Its still early my brother, footballers reduce more than ten years from their real age.

Start practicing, just be focused, determined and work diligently towards your ambition.
Come to NAAVY BARRACKS, MOBIL ROAD, APAPA, LAGOS. OR MARACCANA FIELD AJEGUNLE, geniune football business is really going on there. Boys always travel to all parts of the world.

just pray hard my man wink

Guy you are not too old in this career but all you need do is focus on what you want to achieve and keep praying to Baba God for success.
Re: Football Career by orisebawo(m): 11:13am On Apr 15, 2008
Starting a football carreer at 23 is like deciding to study medicine without a schoool leaving certificate and hoping that the provost will have mercy on you. Even if you reduce you age to 13, i am sure it will only take some hi tech analysis to reveal the truth, at 23 you are already a man. maybe you should get a coaching badge and help the younger ones and help kids that have similar dreams.

You are already three years older than Fabregas and he has been in the business for over 10 years.

I dont mean to dampen your spirit

by the time Bartholomew ogbeche was appearing at the 2002 world cup as a 17yr old, he was actually 25 and he is still playing pro soccer in Europe, so at 23, you still have a chance, but you need to be in a hurry to get noticed by scouts. try football challenge by fash, its a talent hunt/ tv reality show which is aimed at identifying and exposing Nigerian grown soccer talents to the European scene, you never can tell.i can bet that that program will throw up at least one super eagles future regular. you can get the registration scratch card for 3k at any oceanic bank branch near you. good luck
