This amount is about what some other players make in a week or two without hype and in decent places. Anyways, it is our nature to make mountain out of anthills.

If only u knw hw wealthy dis guy is.

Prince4945:
And you think Martins is not wealthy enough to own two night clubs in lagos,

there is a big difference between opening a club, and making money from such establishment. if any donkey with money could open a club and make money, then all rich people in Nigeria would be club owners. Didnt JJ Okocha opened a club recently?!

you can open 10 nightclubs and still lose money!

Hmmm... Meanwhile I know someone in my Villa, they have been calling him Messi since we were kids. Cos of the way he dribbles and disgrace us anytime we are playing football.

Till today, he never play for even Enyimba.
If life is fair, this kin opportunity suppose reach his side. But the rich will keep getting richer.
If your friend is as good as you say he would have been playing for a good club by now. Even village people cannot stop quality. Quality sells itself.

Super Eagles striker Obafemi Martins rejected $1.5 million deal to play in Saudi Arabia due to oil-rich kingdom.

The 35-year-old who played for English clubs Newcastle United and Birmingham City has been searching for a new club since returned from a torn muscle fiber injury he picked up at his last club in Chinese Super League Shanghai Shenhua in May 2018.

‪It is the first time since he began his professional career in 2001 that Martins has been without a club and he has insisted he has received several offers and he has not quit the game yet but incidentally, the former Nigeria international plans to soon open a top-class night club in Lagos.

"He was very open about why he will not move to Saudi Arabia,” the source informed SCORENigeria

"He says being part of the nightclubbing scene takes the pressure off him and without this, he cannot enjoy his football.”

Martins who has had spells in, Italy, England, Germany, Russia, Spain, America and China and he will be remembered for scoring Birmingham City's winner in their 2-1 Carling Cup final victory over Arsenal in 2011 - the club's first silverware since 1963. ‬

‪Nigeria's fifth all-time top scorer with 18 goals, he played in three Africa Cup of Nations tournaments in 2006, 2008 and 2010, as well as the FIFA World Cup in 2010.‬

bros not here.his friend might be a better player than messi,i won't be surprised...


The first step for a good(quality)footballer or any other athlete here to achieve his dream is to first move out of this country. It will be damn hard for any talented footballer here to make it to the big leagues without having any godfather(football own better, a basketball player will have to find his way to either USA or Europe).
