Revealed – Why Swansea City Have Slight Edge Over West Ham In Race To Sign Onyekuru

https://owngoalnigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/IMG_2987.jpg

The race for hot in demand KAS Eupen forward Henry Onyekuru will hot up in the coming days when he is expected to decide between a host of teams in England, France and Germany who are after his signature.


Onyekuru will arrive England on Monday the 12th of June for talks with interested parties which includes West Ham United, Arsenal, Newcastle United and Swansea City.


The striker who is in the camp of the senior national team of Nigeria preparing for this weekend AFCON 2019 Qualifiers against South Africa has confessed his desires to move to Arsenal, but he could end up at Swansea City.


Represented by Mercato Sports, the leading agent in the company Mark Mckay has close ties with Swansea City after helping out in the recruitment of the Ayew brothers Andre and Jordan.


Same can be said of his ties with West Ham but his bridges with the team were burnt a bit after the high profile and controversial departure of one of his client Dmitri Payet in January.


Payet’s departure strained Mckay’s relationship with West Ham who are also in for Onyekuru, while Swansea City still regards him highly due to his role in the recruitment and sales of players that helped the club made money and also remained in the Premier League.

This guy should go to Nice if they're really interested in him. He gets to play UCL football and develop under a coach like Favre.

yeah....that will be better for him
though playing in arsenal would have been helpful
he will still get to play...arsenal have many competitions next season... Europa, fa cup, league cup and EPL
one these is enough for any good player to prove his mantle. moreever playing in arsenal will help improve his skills especially regarding team work
Yep. Personally, I wish him and Nacho could move to Germany. TSG Hoffenheim or Lepzig would be a great place for them to develop

Looks like Onyekuru to Arsenal is off. Apparently he's going to west ham. Arsenal can't guarantee him first team football

Naby Keita went straight from the Austrian league to boss bundesliga. He made buli team of the season. The league isn't that strong but let's not undermine Kayode talent.

Please what is this thing (I am almost tempted to call it rubbish) I read about Onyekuru to Arsenal not happening??

Someone who is said to be from the BBC called David Ormstein calls The Skysports news on Henry's potential Arsenal move "fabricated".

Ornstein is one of the most legitimate sources when it comes to Arsenal news...so there must be a grain of truth to it. Something is probably going on behind the scenes again...

[b] everybody know the real cowards are igbos. what they are doing is what is called deflection. its a mental disease in that what you see in yourself is what you project to others. its like how the men who cheat the most are the ones who are most suspicious of their wives because they are projecting their own infidelity on their wife. its a common psychological disorder. if you are a coward you tend to project that insecurity of yours on other people. CASE CLOSED. when it comes to bravery in naija i can objectively name 3 tribes that take the award for bravery in nigeria and that is yoruba, hausa and fulan . igbos are themost cowards which is why they always cry of being oppressed. have you ever heard warriors cry of oppression or begging to be released to form their own nation ? warriors dont cry and beg like igbos. warriors take what they want. warriors dont admit to being oppressed in their own country. thats cowardice. this whole cry for biafra is cowardice. either step up and take it violently or keep quiet. stop crying like a 2 year old girl WE WANT BAIFRA, YORUBA AND FULANI IS OPPRESSING US WAHHH WAHHH WAHHH [/b]

Nigerian Neymar Dennis Bonaventure Join Club Brugge

Highly rated 19 year old Nigerian forward Dennis Bonaventure has left Ukrainian side Zorya for Belgium giants Club Brugge, the club has announced.

According to a statement on the website of Club Brugge, the forward signed a four year deal at the Jan Breydel Stadium, with former Brugge fans favourite Sergiy Serebrennikov describing him as one of the best players in the Ukraine league.

” He has quickly evolved and showed himself among the best players in the Ukrainian championship this season”, he told the official website of Club Brugge.

Nicknamed “Nigerian Ney‎mar” the Abuja Football Academy graduate had a breakthrough season with Zorya where he played in all of the competitions they were involved in including the Europa League, playing in both legs of their clash against Manchester United.

He made 22 appearances and scored six goals last season for Zorya from his position as a wing forward in what was his first full season as a professional footballer after his move to Europe two seasons ago.

Lineker was probably Superb. McManaman?? Not too sure. He was great, but not superb. He played well in the UCL final against Valencia. He was going to get sold before that.

No he is sort of. If they all stayed, wouldn't you think the league would be stronger? Ligue un exports more talents than epl...are we even arguing this? Money is the only thing that let's epl talents stay and develop into world class levels.

When Nacho got his little shot in the UCl... he took it with both hands.. he scored two goals... one as a seven mins cameo performer and the other in as a starter against Celtic.

Nacho's competition was Aguero and Gabby J... and even at some point Kevin de bruyne and Sterling... coz Pep will play them as false 9. So who had it tougher? Nacho or martial? Come on... let's be fair...

Mbappe did well in the UCL yes... When Nacho was given his shot in the UCL... he also delivered...scored in the two games he featured in. Why ignore that?

and no Mbappe is not better... Nacho and Mbappe are within the same range in overall quality right now....
I'm tired of this argument.Ok why did Pep play Debruyne and Sterling as a False 9 in the first place?? At the start of the season, Aguero and MAYBE Nolito were Nacho competition. Infact, Aguero was Nacho only competition start of the season. No one is denying Martial had a poor seaon, but he wasn't a regular.

So the French League produces potential... Potential does not always become world class. EPL has created more world class players.
They leave the French league before they get to fulfill that potential into World class ability. So again, you are sort of right.

I was only saying that Mbappe is not entirely better than Nacho on an overall level... What started this debate is saying Mbappe is far better than Nacho... I am saying that is not true... They are practically on the same scale and level with each having what makes them both special...

But you guys were so out to show that Lord Mbappe lives in a universe so stars spangled and sparking with stardust light years away from Nacho...... as if that is true...

Nacho has done and proven himself special in the planet's toughest League... Martial came and his hype died down... but Nacho's reputation is still intact and when he gets his smooth and consistent run of games.. the world will see what a star he truly is...

Ligue is not the EPL.... show respect for Nacho.
Mbappe has insane numbers for a 18 year old. Show him some respect. His ucl performance was crazy. Ligue un is not a farmers league.

You can't say Martial hype died down when he hasn't played as much this season. Man united bought Mkhitaryan and Ibra. He has more competition start of the season than Nacho did. As for Mbappe, he has done well in the ucl. He scored against big teams, you can't say he hasn't faces stern opposition. So no, they aren't at the same level. Mbappe is better.

Mbappe is a freak of nature, he is a boy built like a man. But when it comes to putting the ball in the net and creating goals, Nacho is truly on another level.
