You are on point broh....it's been ages i saw his comments here!

Actually, the player's name is Samuel Okon.

Icon4s:


The last time I heard about Edwin Okon he was about to get married.

Zaharadeen Bello is with Kano Pillars.

The defenders from that FIFA U17 WC crop have not progressed well.

Austria Wien have officially announced Kayode's move to Man city:

http://twitter.com/FKAustriaWien/status/898115517701128192

Thanks for the update man,just super happy for this dude.Some folks were saying he shoulda opted for Newcastle but he would have also suffered the same fate onazi`s move to England suffered as he wont also get a work permit.People forget it was Pep himself who sanctioned his transfer after watching his videos and you know Pep wont buy a player who doesnt suit his style. Also, I dont even see the difference between Newcastle and Girona as both are coming from relegation and both can also go back to their championship so its still a win-win for Kayode.Hope he hits double-digits for them before going back to City!

Nigeria's U15 team known as the Future Super Eagles lost by 1goal to Nil to their Moroccan counterpart in a test game Yesterday.

They are expected to play another test game Today against the Moroccans before they return Tomorrow.

Portimonense are in the portuguese top flight this season.

Uzoho is in Deportivo first team this season.

Otherwise, good list.

Yes thanks for the correction about Portimonense.

However, Uzoho has been loaned to Deportivo Fabril

Modified.
You are actually right on that as well

Another case we need to consider. In my opinion Fabian likes the challenge of being the first to do it with Nigeria, because in his words there are so many good players in Germany -- it's easier to win the world cup with Germany.

Germany born midfielder, Fabian Senninger has revealed that he wants to play for Nigeria’s senior national team – Super Eagles and win the World Cup.

The 20 year old player who also plays right back stated in a recent interview.

“My father is saying I should play for Germany like my uncle, but me myself personal I want to play for Nigeria, there are so many good players in Germany and it’s easy to win the World Cup with Germany but I want to win the World Cup with Nigeria and get the first star”.


The 20 year old, who recently joined German youth side Hannover 96 from Nike Academy said his father wants him to play for Germany, like his uncle did but he wants to play for Nigeria.

The second match between Our Future Eagles and their Moroccan counterpart ended 1-1

Joebie:

Yes but he also bears Godwin. I erroneously typed Edwin.

Was the game against the Moroccan U15 side?

blueto:
I think the coach wants to monitor the imminent saturday and sunday games first to see the best in form players to prosecute the game.

The coach already knows his players.

I would rather say he may want to know those among his players that will remain fit (free of injuries) after the 'imminent' weekend games.

Uzoho missing in Deportivo La Coruna's last 3 pre-season fixtures. Proof of official squad list below.

After more research I discovered he was among two players called up to join teammates at Deportivo Fabril for a game against Real Madrid Castilla. on their official websites:

Okay I meant to say Samuel initially and not his former teammate Denis

I remember him really well, I watched him play three games for Burnley FC U21 in the Summer of 2015. As a left back unfortunately he wasn't offered a contract.

Really nice well behaved young man, quite fast too.

Thanks for that info. Never new he tried out in England.

Oh yes and I watched the video of when he talked about playing for Nigeria. It shows character, when he says he wants to take up the more difficult challenge as it has to do with winning the World Cup. To be the first star means he wants that special name that special or unique thing added to his resume(considering Nigeria has never won the world cup or has a slimmer chance of doing so), a decision he thinks his peers will not normally take. That's a professional decision, not necessarily that he feels more Nigerian. On the flip side he acknowledged that Germany has a lot of good players.. Let's consider this case.

He is the Deportivo third choice keeper for the season. He will play mainly reserve team games unless there is a major injury crisis.

Yes thanks for the info. He's been promoted. But he was called up for that game. Having Alampasu as 2nd choice for a first tier side, and Uzoho as a 3rd choice for a first tier side is definitely good news for us. I guess we are still scared to use them in the SE.

Yh sir.
Reports has it that they were physically more imposing than our boys but our boys gave a good account of themselves.

edi287:
Wrong place. Go do this on some other thread

We are used to giving them the silent treatment.

wayodude:


If that's what he is after instead of playing for bigger clubs then that's good for him. But from arrival in England as a footballer (not on loan or as a youth team player) to getting your hands on a British passport would take at the very least 6 years. If Nacho signed a professional contract when he turned 18 in October 2014 (i.e this is when his work permit would have started) then the earliest date he would be eligible for a British passport would be in October 2020.So he is less than half way there. All good though, a man's got to do what he's got to do.

all the more reason he decide to stay put, befor you think it, two years is upon us,

thanks man
if you lay your hands on 2015 sets pls give us
and i hope spotkik will not disapoint us this season

Onazi could not get a work permit?? That's tragic. It means very few Nigerian players can with our football ranking and failure to qualify for AFCONs

A committee should be set up to look for THESUPERDERD asap,
