Schalke make approach for Liverpool youngster
2019-03-05T16:48:11Z 17:48
Schalke are one of several clubs to have made an approach to sign Liverpool striker Taiwo Awoniyi.
The Nigeria U-23 international, who signed signed a five-year contract with the Reds last summer, has scored six goals in seven games since joining Belgian side Mouscron on loan in January.
The Reds have already fielded loan interest from French trio Metz, Nice and Toulouse, while Belgian side Club Brugge and German duo Hertha Berlin and Mainz have also monitored the forward.

Sometime one has to take a step or two backward to be able to leap to the highest point. Most people saw this guy as a failure the moment he left Gent for lowly Mouscron. A certain komekn started mocking him that he will never be good enough for Liverpool or a championship club, bkus, to him, Solanke was a god. Today, who is the most rated and sort after? Most interesting thing about this news is that the said clubs aint just registering interests buh are making approaches. Remember the kinda clubs(middlesborough, Shifield Wednesday, Norwich, moribund Huddersfield) that fought for Solanke's siggy bfor he finally went to Bournemouth feeder team. Compare those clubs to what are queuing up to have Awo my boy.

Your Boy as how? Na you born am?
Mtchew.

Lol e pain am

andrew444:
Lol agreed ,you and your wahala with your boys ,they aren't doing bad sha

I know say you go soon adopt new boy ,like David okereke because the boy is already drawing interest from Seria A

I cant deny the bolded. I just love seeing young players springing up big time.

How did you overtake us to claim Osimhen?

Everybody knows that Osimhen has always been my anointed boy that I use to taunt Southgate over his innit boys. Remember as long as Chriskels is concerned, Ighalo shouldn't be getting invites, bkus to me and to every rational analyst out there, he is below Osimhen in the league of natural/potent strikers.

In all ramifications, Osimhen is my boy before he is anyone else's. KPOM!

Andrew444 can bear me witness

TheGoodJoe:

I feel the Nwakali brothers will overtake Ndidi for the deeper roles later.

Guardiola still has interest in Chidi. If he works with Guardiola, then we will have a gem. The few weeks at the Campus with Guardiola fired him up.

From the archives

Dave my man, ur matter no start today oo

TheGoodJoe:
By the way, I am proud of my boy Osimhen. I hope he has a cracker in camp and keeps progressing.

U wan steal my boy from me? Na Nacho be ur boy nah

Caspian22:
Hello,

Does anyone know the admin of www.soccerassembly.com?

Really pains me he doesn't update that very interesting site no more. Pavarotti is the admin.

For the 6th time in a row, Awoniyi makes Jupiler league team of the week.

tbaba1234:
Onuachu in the team versus Seychelles according to the grapevine. Maja for the under 23 too.

tbaba1234:
Ozornwanfor has attracted interest from European clubs but there are multiple agents claiming to represent him. I hope they do not destroy his move.

Nigerian players always seem to have issues with agents and money.

No sauce for proper digestion of such yummy meals?

Everton na yeye club..

they know how to loss at home to smaller teams but when they face Liverpool, they become barca..
anyway,there's still the Manchester derby..

its not over until it's over!

Sorry bro, thats what defines derbies. It is called battle for supremacy. It is a Territorial war fought with the last drop of the blood for bragging rights. The rivalry is everlasting and in some cases, people take it beyond the game and lives are lost.

Liverpool knocked outta the summit of the EPL table. The Merseyside derby was worth it, a very interesting match. Richarlison na baller. Salah sha has a very poor footwork, always got let down by his heavy touches while running with the ball.

andrew444:
Lol

Pogba to Mourinho right now...

zuchyblink:
North Africans have quality players but what we have they don't have is Rohr

Really? Who is Rohr compared to Javier Aguirre of Egypt, Herve Reinard of Morocco, Allain Giresse of Tunisia et al?

Humility017:
It seems you delight more in hyping these Africa countries....especially Morocco that could not even win a match @ the last world cup despite the stars they had in their team.

now you're hyping these francophone countries....probably you wanna intimidate us...
abi?

Aint trynna intimidate no one, I just want more quality presence in African footie, buh, if U feel intimidated by that, then..

Vardy had only 8 touches in the first half?


Please Whats the definition of lost (MIA)?

andrew444:
If he make psg move he will make the French team

TheGoodJoe:
Yes men. The guy is class. There was a time he was so brilliant under Marco Silva when Silva coached Watford.

Chai I love watching him play. Took notice of his abilities since that 2013 U20 world cup. I knew Watford had a jewel in their hands the moment they secured his siggy from Rennes.

Talking about loaded African teams, Morocco pulls a coup as they add another tank (Oussama Idrissi) into their already dreaded Armoury, as Eredivisie goals wizard, wanted by the two Milan clubs, Juventus and other big European clubs, decides to pitch his tent with the Herve Reinard lead Morocco squad ahead of the Netherlands.

Afcon go sweet oo!!

andrew444:
Bros leave Algeria

They boast of better quality sha but leave those ones jor ,I no 3 believe those ones

Faouzi ghoulam ,mahrez ,bentaleb ,slimani?

Normal level players

Thou ghoulam is African best left back as far as am concerned

Being a first team left back in Napoli no b beans

Mahrez is there sha

Does Nigeria have any CB as good as Aissa Mendi?

I just pray this Doucoure guy would wake up one morning and say he doesn't wanna wait for the French national team no more, instead, he wants to hug his African heritage by pledging to rep the Ivory Coast abi Senegal sef. This boy is class mbok!

Leicester looks lost in this formation. Lol Wilf Andy doesnt even know who to mark

andrew444:
Lol

Ivory Coast get players abeg

Teams wey get players pass for Africa

Ivory Coast
Senegal
Morocco
Nigeria

The rest are just there ,Algeria and Egypt na wash .

Algeria boasts of better quality and experience than Nigeria. Seems uv not been keeping tabs on them.

TheGoodJoe:
He has the work rare but atrocious in finishing. Guess Rodgers sees promise in him.

Barnes is everything buh a goal getter. Boy is a calamity in front of goal. I would rather a showboating Gray was preferred

andrew444:
Agreed

Zaha is a beast,he is already world class

Nicolas Pepe ,omo that boy dey hot ,70 million euros rated ,if he decided to leaves lille he might be African most expensive player ,boy is tearing French league apart ,he might end of as Ligue 1 player of the season .

Pepe is a beast. Imagine these two flanking Connet of Lyon in a 4-3-3 formation, Chai Afcon go sweet oo!!

TheGoodJoe:
Shocking Gray is on the bench. I expected him to start due to his pace and Rodgers offensive strategy. Madison and Barnes get the nod on the flanks.

TheGoodJoe:
Okazaki did not make the bench. That is an interesting twist.

Calm down, it is not yet uhuru. Rogers is only getting a feel of his new team(squad). Pray KC makes good use of this little Faith showed in him by naming him ahead of Okazaki on the bench, otherwise, the purported new twist might get re-twisted soon.

BTW, Leicester already trailing...

I couldn't contain my joy when I saw Kolo Toure in the dugout, as an assistant coach in the Epl, taking down notes. More grace Kolo

Say whatever U want, Wilf Zaha is about the best winger in world football right now, his compatriot, Nick Pepe of Lille is also up there at the top 5.

Chriskels, any update about your 'carpentar' apprentice the guy in Portugal, Mikel Agu, haven't heard about him in a while.

Forget those pretenders; from Etebo to Agu to Onazi to Ogu to Agbo

The less said about Simmy Nwankwo, the better

All these na carpenters

Curtisaxel7:
I am not comparing myself to Iheanacho. I am not the one that the NFF spent millions of Nigerian taxpayers' money to train, nuture and sponsor from U-15 level to senior level. I am not the one that the NFF took to FIFA tournaments as an unknown rookie player and gave a platform to showcase his talents to the world. I am not the one that was taken to the largest football showpiece on earth despite my poor showings for my club in order to give me an unmerited chance to salvage my career.

I am not even half as privileged as Iheanacho, nor will I ever be. I have not enjoyed any of the support and sponsorship that the NFF gave to Iheanacho. I have no sponsor but myself, I have had to scrape and hustle to make ends meet and still pursue my academic endeavors just like millions of other Nigerian youths out there. So, there's no comparison between me and Iheanacho. I am not jealous of him, some people are just luckier than the others, but comparing me to him at this stage of my life will be like comparing yourself with Dangote's son. It's simply unfair.

Let the Nigerian government give me the same support it gave to Iheanacho, then we can compare achievements.




PS:
I am a bona fide Enite. I've been living here for three years now.

Oh ur anger is a that Nigeria invested in Iheanacho and he hasn't done enough to pay back? Plz is he the only person Nigeria has ever invested in abi na him be the only youth team player ever produced by Nigeria? By the way, how handsome are u that u come here everyday telling us how ugly Kelechi looks? Can u be bold enough to share ur pics?

I guessed right, u are an Enit though most times u sound like someone from HT. That said, I know many Enits who showed potentials (what great lions are renowned for), in their different fields of endeavours/studies, and got invested in by the Nigerian govt, just as they did Kelechi. How come u haven't shown any potential that would attract the government to also invest that same tax payers money in u abi na Iheanacho dey hold u back from showing ur own potentials? Kelechi gave them a reason to invest in him, why not also give the country a reason to invest in u, instead of bitching about all over nairaland as though Kelechi stole ur destiny?

Taliban:
The days of perpetua nkwocha, mercy akhide, patience dede etc. At some time we were on the verge of making it to the semi finals of the WC. Back then I remembered we had some firebrand women admins, people like Bola jegede and aisha falode etc. Perhaps a lack of investment and most likely no plan or vision has caused the regression.

Precious Dede wasn't really that good.

Time is ticking, and Solanke hasn't done nothing yet since joining lowly Bournemouth from giant Liverpool


Liverpool echo labels Awoniyi Liverpool's best, of all the players loaned/sold out for this 2019 season. I no hear Solanke the goals wizard

Danielnino00:
the same source told you that Ini Umotong has been shut out of the super falcons abi
