There were offers but the club didn't want him to leave.

and he choosed to stay....?
players do have a say sometimes...and can request for a transfer if they desire too

Is Sanusi Ibrahim 19 or 17?

When did they make him 17? News reports last season were telling us he was 19.

https://www.footballlive.ng/meet-the-fast-growing-winger-in-the-npfl-ibrahim-sanusi-of-nassarawa-united/

https://www.busybuddiesng.com/npfl-19-year-old-ibrahim-sanusi-rivals-mfon-udoh-on-the-goal-scoring-chart-after-md-16/

Oh well, at least he is 'young' . 19 is most likely his real age

yes but he is over age for the tourney...

this main reason why I promote a clampdown on indigenous coaches...will manu garba say he does not know the guy to be over age ?

the MRI is just there for further verification and authentication but still not the absolute truth... If I was the coach he won't even come near the camp because he is over aged.

we need true under 17 players...at least few years time we can reap the dividends.

I hate deceits with passion....

This people get problem �

very selfish people...

tbaba1234:
Onyekuru should be announced officially in the next 24 hours..

thanks God for him...
should be play so well in France...
Rohr gonna call in love with Him...
German and French league are the old man favourite.

it is a good move...hopefully 2-3 years from now...he may likely be in the epl.

gamaliel9:
The guy benching Ebuehi at Benfica Tavares is a left footer but plays right foot too...he scored on Saturday....He bombs forward easily...This injury to Ebuehi sef...there is competition in that Benfica team...This will rob off on our team....Let him stay there and fight foe a shirt

Tyrone is the only SE player...I don't wanna see in the EPL...

after benfica he should head to Juventus or Spain.... Dude is so technical.

bossto:
Walai watching him play reminds me of drogba!

Someone who doesn't know him says he's lightweight.....I laugh in Swahili

I was surprised to read some comments on goal.com
some British Chelsea fans already fantasizing a partnership between him and Tammy Abraham at Chelsea...
one arsenal fan...already hoping they sign him next summer...

one asked...how does this small clubs get this good unknown players to sign?

He was like they already got another pepe replacement after the cool cash just made from the sale of the Ivorian.

tbaba1234:
If Osimhen scores 15-20 goals, he would probably be valued at 50M upwards.

Wolfsburg would be the biggest losers.

I tell you...they made a mistake selling him to that Belgium club...he should be loaned and this season sell him to Lille and make x5 of the sum used to sign him...

they still made some cash though it wasn't a loss

Happy birthday Charles... do a belated birthday celebration bro

simiife:
Seems d move is abt to b completed

yeah...that's true. he is in Monaco already... God bless Everton for this.

simiife:
Datz reminds me,wat abt d transfer,seems d transfer window in France is still open

Dude don't wanna go...
he is more interested with the sum he is getting at Galatarasy than his career progress..

Bolowolowo:
Mark my words, this boy will end up in a top 3 La Liga team in a season or 2.

La Liga where...
Chelsea will likely sign him if he plays well...
this season....I don't want any la liga team.

simiife:
Osimhem pls help me put d last 1,no tym

Just pain me for Onyekuru...no sense.
dude playing in Monaco only for this season would have put me in limelight....

well na him know

forgiveness:
They are bunch of tribalist. Chriskels doesn't see anything good from players not from his Zone. He will do everything to bring the player down without no just cause or facts to prove his point, and when you show him facts, he will downplay them. It's getting out of hands.

you're very funny...
two of you are both guilty...
close 80% of the players you both cry over here for their inclusion into the SE are both from your region....

he is even more rational...and more broad in his outlook...
the way you support some players makes it easy for someone to tell where you're from.

remember then it was raheem lawal,martins etc....
while chriskels can even call for non-inclusion of his tribesman into the super eagles set up...

I have seen him write off.... Simmy, Azubuike for charlesemeka etc.

but I can't say same for you when it comes to your tribalmen.

please let's drop this name calling and let's enjoy the game....

it is normal to have some level of emotions and affinity towards your tribe or tribesmen but right now Nigeria comes first...that's the sentiment we promote here

BascoVanVeli:
Victor Osimhen scores

see how he sweet my belly. pray he gets another

Joebie:
everything na upbringing.. The Nigerian environment does not encourage this. You can't expect them to just change mindset as soon as they land abroad

but how come you see some Nigerians from even poor and average families... so bag first class and various academic awards and distinctions when they're opportune to leave the shores of Nigeria for schooling abroad...?

the truth is anyone who is self driven and goal oriented will always make progress irrespective of wherever he finds himself...

some Nigeria players are not self driven....
Equaveon made reference to during their time how you'll have to train extra hours and give no sleep to your eyes all because you don't wanna loose your place in the SE set up.....

have you ever watched CR7 personal trainings?
if you've done...you will know that some of these exceptional footballers will see and enjoy watching work extra hard to be where they're today....

where you're coming from is not an excuse...neither should you allow it stop you.

talent is simply not enough

charlesemeka85:
I pray he does better than last term. If not for Guardiola than sold nature he would have scored goals for fun in the current man City team

he is too comfortable playing in Leicester...
had it been he was still in city the pressure to perform and live up to expectations would have push him to play better and learn more...

Marcus Rashford on learning from the best
“I still watch clips of loads of players - Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar.
"If they’ve done something at the weekend I’d want to know how they’ve done it.
“Messi’s natural abilities are crazy. It’s a joy to watch him."

tell me why will such a player not improve.... I doubt if half of Nigeria players follow this path... many on getting to Europe start to club and engage in wild party and forget about their careers others are just comfortable being a mediocre and don't wanna contend for the best...

this is simply phenomenal for a young lad

forgiveness:
Onazi na bricklayer but e was crucial to winning the AFCON. Tribalist

please stop calling someone tribalist
it makes no sense......

u and chriskels are kind of parallel lines.. chriskels is more progressive and radical...he believes in players that can deliver promptly.
He is not a tribalist

charlesemeka85:
Okay bros! So u prefer watching and following gombe united than European footie? Bros u re patriotic oooo

watching the NPFL can ruin my day even weeks self....

that league is an eyesore...I wonder how someone who is a man city,Berca,Jeventus,PSG fan etc can watch that league and not strain his eyes...

God help us oooo

simiife:
Any1 knws y Iwobi didn't mak match day squad

yeah he is not eligible to play today...
his transfer was at moonlight so he wasn't registered on time for today's match

andrew444:
Bros you suppose know who you dey argue with, him no go gree despite his bad opinions , save your self the stress.

thanks bro...just imagine what he wrote about kayode he won MOTM award only to be relegated to bench in subsequent matches...in Ukraine and Spain...
who does that even a racist or a white supremacist won't do that....

sometimes he talks as if we don't watch this guys play too

forgiveness:
It's just a loan move. If he performs he might return to Sharktar Donetsk or a better offer.

Was he qualified for work permit even if Newcastle by him?

Manchester City offer was better.

read my last paragraph...
they would have trade with him same way Everton is doing with onyekuru...

a French move would have been better for his development, he is not a technical player going to the Spanish league on loan was an error in disguise

Icon4s:
then you are not a lover of good attacking football.

how can a Chelsea fan love good attacking football...
I have been a Chelsea fan since mouriho days... I enjoy counter and packing the bus much sha especially when it pays off.

mouriho arouse my passion in football during the 2003/2004 era first watch him Porto then

any team that plays like bully fetch my hate...I used to love Juventus then but the bullying nature made me not to like them much any more

forgiveness:
Will Madrid want a Makelele type of player in this era? That's the point.

Ndidi is a DMF and in this era, you must have additional 3 attributes to make a modern day DMF but I can't see these in his game though he might improve later.

However, who Ndidi go bench for Chelsea's mildfield?

Chelsea mildfielders are not the culprit for missing goals, it's rather the attackers.

let me explain this succinctly
Ndidi not scoring goals is because of the team play and coach instructions...

allow him drift forward and watch him score beautiful goals....

place him in a possessive and attacking team...you'll see a different brand of Ndidi
unfortunately someone like mouriho would have so love and prefer him just the way he is now

Joebie:
Slovenian second division side NK Drava Dakinda have appointed former Super Eagles coach, Austin Eguavoen, as their new Technical Director.

The 53-year-old until his appointment was coach of fourth division club, Zakynthos FC, in Greece.

NK Drava Dakinda have in their ranksthree Nigerian players:Temitope Nelson, Mathias Fanimo and Simon Oduh.

--Punch

very good...Austin a level headed coach unlike olisheh whose character betrayed him..I expect him to do well even though he is not that technically sound...
he said sometime ago that he is pursuing a UEFA coaching badge, hope he has gotten it.

this is the kind of progress we call for..... a good 8-10 years in Europe club coaching experience can fetch you the SE job when it matters most.....

I so happy for him....
let Siasia keep hoping for the super eagles job...oooh

forgiveness:
Well, he needs to focus on his career now and try as much as possible to get game time which was not afforded him last season. And it's certain he wasn't going to get game time this season too after Sharktar Donetsk appointed a new coach.

Let see what happens if he gets game time.

with this way this guys are going with their careers and very bad decision making premise on making money at the expense of wise career move ..
they'll barely achieve any laurels with the national team or even fetch SE call up.

just take a look at Onyekuru now.... same player Monaco wanna sign all because of the bogus wage he wanna let die his EPL dream..... hopefully we get lookman Rohr can ignore him for all I care.

Kayode made a mistake when he choose sign for man city at the expense of Newcastle who really wanted him...

Newcastle would have trade with him same way Everton is doing with Henry that's if they can't get him a work permit

qanda:
Sorry about the low pay. Be on the lookout for opportunities and leave your current employer as soon as possible.... low is relative though. My assumptiwon is that your pay is below N150,000...if that is correct.. how many years of experience do you have -2 or 3?

Bottomline, the best way to get a pay raise in 9ja is to leave your current employer.

it is even below 100k though I am less 1 year on the job. ...
I prepare bids and tenders mostly for NNPC, UN and government jobs and know little on NIPEX for now...I am still learning though.

it has not been easy considering that I don't have a science or engineering background but I also do some admin and HR duties at work

qanda:
During my most recent interview, the company MD asked a question about the previous works I have executed successfully, I gave an idea... but he wanted me to mention the exact project titles (has to do with oil and gas industry tendering).

I told him I don't cram project titles and that I can reference them from my laptop. I went further to tell him that the questions he is asking me is not what demonstrates if I am fit for the job.

He was quite for a moment and asked what questions would demonstrate I am fit for the role. I said, 'I think the question you should ask is, 'what do you do when you receive a tender?', 'what steps do you take while responding to a tender?', the interviewer gave me a nod to answer the questions I suggested, I did and got the job.

I am sharing this to emphasis you need to be confident during interviews (you must be polite too) and know that the employer needs you as much as you need them. Just show them that you know your stuff and that you are the right fit for the job.

awww you're into business development for an oil and gas coy?
I am too but my salary is way low

TheSuperNerd:
Relax Royalty... Ndidi's time is coming after this 2019/2020 season. This season Ndidi will be playing consistently alongside Dennis Praet or Youri Tielemans et al. Leicester's midfield is looking really exciting amd shows the kind of football they wanna take on this season under Rodgers. Hopefully that will help finetine further the passing game of Ndidi and further metamorphose the lad from midfield destroyer to a true Midfield enforcer and ball playing DM.

Ndidi is undoubtedly the stand alone best DM in England now after Gueye's departure. Gueye was his only rival in the EPL in defensive stats all round with Ndidi always edging the man but now that Gueye is gone, there is none that will come as close as Gueye did. This is Ndidi's season to further establish himself as not just the undisputed best DM in the EPL defensive-stats wise but to also show he offers more going forward like getting involved in build up plays, passing and providing an attacking outlet from deep. Ndidi will step it up this season and I am sure that big move will come eventually.

well said bro..... thanks for the clarification

forgiveness:
Is Chelsea Madrid?

markele played for Madrid too...
so how many goals did he score for them?

anyone who watches football knows that Ndidi is a high scoring DM... he has the shot..he did it in Belgium.
just that Leicester do play a defensive kind of game barely hold possession. if he was to be in a team like Chelsea considering the goal scoring chances Jorginho missed and other Chelsea midfielders..
Ndidi will be a goal scorer almost every month... Chelsea presently lack Midfielders that can shot from outside the 18 yard box with precision save for Berkeley and Drinkwater

forgiveness:
Chelsea has gone pass park bus era. This is the difference. You get it?

and Madrid park the bus when markele played for them...?
you really need to understand the primary responsibility of a DM...
I doubt if Ndidi was a Brazilian or a European...he wont have fetch a concrete offer from top clubs

charlesemeka85:
Npfl big na lol, a player from the 9ja 2nd tier Don wear our number 10 shirt before against Chad in kaduna hahahahhahaa

only a coach with no ambition will ply such route ... they don't aim to manage a European club someday...

the white men will come to Africa coach a national team in all fairness just to get a global recognition as such get a European club to manage...
but Africa coaches rather than maximize this opportunity to boast their CVs rather see it as an opportunity to make money from the players bonuses and sign up fees abroad....

thank God for Rohr sha
