JohnBullMySon:
Yeah, Sunday Dare initiated the "sponsor an athlete program". Some of them are being sponsored by third party. For the men's performance, well its always been that way.

which Sunday Dare?, something that had been on ground even before the coming of this present govt

TheLoneCitizen:
Almeria CEO:
"Umar Sadiq has not travelled to England to avoid any type of injury that could stop a transfer that is close at this time. He will be sold for a little less than €30m."

The big one!

I don't know why they don't wanna reveal the club.

ChrisKels:
Though I don't rate his Onyedika boy, but I pray this deal comes to fruition. A midfielder in a top league/club.

If this one works out then it will be our biggest transfer news oo

TheSuperNerd:
Nice but Ejuke's parent club isn't Lokomotiv Moscow.

Said's club is Viborg FF... not FC Viborg.

And our senior coach's name isn't Pizarro.

I know it's copied but you for help correct am too naa.

Anyway, he's right. The 2019 U17 Class are making nice progress but Olakunle and Amoo are obviously currently ahead in terms of their development right now.

I hope for more big things from the lads as with others.

Is Ibraheem Olalekan Jabaar of PSL side, Stellenbosch a joke to you guys?

ChrisKels:


I don't know why they don't wanna reveal the club.

United nearly killed Zlatan for announcing his transfer before official announcement.

In most instances, it might be in apprehension of the move breaking down either in failed medicals or contract disagreement.

Well, I just pray the team is still Dortmund

Fabrizio said no. More likely he'll remain in Spain.

Was gonna say the same thing. The "Adopt and Athlete" initiative isn't Date's idea. It was allegedly stolen from a private individual who was running with it. Anyways Dare adopted it, but even the individuals haven't exactly lived up to their expectations (including the Ogun State governor allegedly). I'm hopeful though that the successes recorded and the visibility athletics has gotten the last few weeks will reawaken this idea.

TheLoneCitizen:

Well, I have chosen to take those words from Fabby with a pinch of salt. I might be delusional

It first mention of that was during those championships usuallheld in Asaba abi it's warri, after the potentials shown by Blessing Okagbara and the likes, and their outcries, that move was Adopted, to Sponsor Blessing and some others from delta state,

What I don't knew is when Sunday did such,
Even express Tobi had been running since during blessings time, why haven't the Ogun govt Adopt her since then,

Those politicians with their quest of scoring cheap points

ChrisKels:
Though I don't rate this Onyedika boy, but I pray this deal comes to fruition. A midfielder in a top league/club.

Lol... Chris.

In time, you will come to see why Onyedika is worth the watch.

I recall you once considered Alhassan Yusuf a Scam back in 2020 before you began seeing the light.

So don't worry, time will fix your eye sight again on Onyedika whom you have once tagged a 'Carpenter' Time telleth it all.

ChrisKels:
By the way, if Alhassan Yusuf fails to make the next list of the Eagles, I go vex for Peseiro. That boy is bossing the Jupiler league like a veteran, so much so the coach of Antwerp has somewhat elected to build his midfield around him.

Sounds exciting make i go watch his videos

do4luv14:

I heard him say so on live TV.

ChrisKels:

I don’t think this is the right time for Onyedika to move to a club like AC Milan where he will not get sufficient gametime

TheLoneCitizen:
Osimhen vice-captain for Napoli is enroute to legendary status. Cavani, Higuain didn't reach these heights.

What heights

Subzero047:


I don’t think this is the right time for Onyedika to move to a club like AC Milan where he will not get sufficient gametime

ac Milan is rebuilding and a player likes onyedika will benefit from playing for a massive side as the Italian champions

He mustn’t start all games but few minutes off the bench will enhance his development and exposure

Subzero047:


I don’t think this is the right time for Onyedika to move to a club like AC Milan where he will not get sufficient gametime

This is the bitter truth

If he moves good Luck to him with game time ,but I don’t think he will get much

Subzero047:


What heights

Become captain at Napoli.

Subzero047:


I don’t think this is the right time for Onyedika to move to a club like AC Milan where he will not get sufficient gametime

I agree with you. A club in the Belgian league will be good for him. From there he can go further to ac milan.
All these big clubs dont develop players. Except he matures fast both emotionally and football wise.
He needs development and game time not bench.
The time to move to a big league or club will come.

andrewbaba44:


This is the bitter truth

If he moves good Luck to him with game time ,but I don’t think he will get much

let him move first. If he performs in training definently he will play

Ac Milan before prior to their declaration of interest scouted him thoroughly so I believe they were impressed in the qualities he posses as a midfielder

Kessie just had few seasons of top flight football before he was snapped up by the Milan giants and he did massively well for them. Same can be onyedika’s case

Why una Dey berate our players always? Na same excuses we hear here when ndidi was linked to top clubs which didn’t materialize then now he is stuck at leicester

If Milan feels he is good for their team then the move if it happen is a big yes to me

midfield maestro that hv been playing for mediocre clubs since he moved to Europe has he developed?

charlesemeka85:

If he is not developing how can he attract interest from AC Milan? You guys knows how to throw dirty slurr at our players then place those silly laugh emoji to cover it up.

Kessie had few seasons of top football in a better team like Atlanta in a better league ,it’s totally different from onyedika

Wishing him the best .

That’s the one player I can’t wait to see in SE.

unfortunately you don’t get it…he is not talking about onyedika… any regular here knows who he is referring to.
