ok

Nice move... We'll have opportunity to watch him more

Good One

All of una saying he should have waited till after World cup!

What if e break e leg during worldcup and e no see match play.

What if Nigeria comot from group stage and the guy no shine!

Abeg jare its a good deal for him.

For those of you that will still say "What if NOT"

Can't you see it's a 2year deal?
If he does well, a good club can still buy him after 1 season. Which will be a good deal for him since he would have just 1 year remaining in his contract by then, Brighton will have to sell him for a good price otherwise they will loose him for free exit when his contract expires.

Nothing una sabi. Lazy Nigeria Youth. na to dey rake online una sabi. Or you think sayhim too no get agents and advisers.

If a slap una mouth just na una go transmit go dundee united..... Mttttchhhheeeewww

He should have chilled till after the world cup na, maybe a better offer from other clubs would surface.........but I'm thinking he sharperly accepted the offer so that they won't turn there face to other youngsters during the world cup because he knew Nigeria won't make it pass the round of 16

Good move bro.
Come test yourself in the premier league

Do you know where he is coming from? This is a 29 year old dude who was not sure of having a Professional career just 5 years ago. He has only played 70 senior matches at the age of 29, and almost all of them in the last 2 years. At 27 years old, he had not played up to 10 professional matches.

The Brighton deal should yield him no less than £1m per year of which a 3 year contract will sort out his retirement, and you are here asking him to wait for World Cup. What if he injures at World Cup or gets disgraced.

EPL is the promised land and he has reached there. He will never need to work again after football which was beyond his wildest dreams 5 years ago.
