Thanks for profiling Rafiat Sule.
She is in Serie C, which is quite a low league in Italy.
All the best to her.

Smh. Basic setpieces....urghhhhhhh
Same old. I no watch again!!

The @NGSuper_Falcons is torn between players loyal to @AsisatOshoala & those loyal to @EBIONOME. It's torn between the foreign-born & Nigeria-born players. @CoachWaldrum only trusts fellow coach American Lauren Gregg. He has no regard for his Nigerian assistants. What a mess!

Uchenna Kanu is ready to bring her ‘African energy’ to Racing Louisville FC

Uchenna Kanu is ready to roll for Louisville, despite the large expectations placed on her. She spoke exclusively with The Equalizer on her big move to the NWSL.

by Rachael Kriger March 16, 2023

Uchenna Kanu may only be 25-years-old, but the spotlight is bright and on her as Racing Louisville’s new signing. The Nigerian international has only been with Racing Louisville for a couple days now, but has high expectations for her first season in the National Women’s Soccer League.

Kanu comes to the U.S. with plenty of success to her name, especially from her time in Mexico with Tigres. Kanu scored 20 goals in 30 regular-season matches, finding immediate success with the club and winning the 2022 Apertura title against Club América.

That success was noted by Racing Louisville, who expressed interest in signing the young African striker. Racing paid top-dollar, too. The Equalizer broke that Kanu’s transfer fee was $150,000, and included a $30,000 payout, too, if Kanu scores more than 12 goals in the 2023 season.

Kanu said, in an exclusive interview with The Equalizer, that there is certainly pressure on her to perform, but she’s ready to do her job.
“This is my job. I’ve been doing this for a while,” she said. “I don’t have any fear. I will believe in myself, and what I can do. I cannot wait to be the best that I can be in this league and make a name for myself, and my family. I want to help this team as much as I can.”

Simply put, Kanu said she wants to make a name for herself not just in Louisville, but in the NWSL.

Life in the NWSL🇺🇸, regarded as the best League in the World 🌍… But some people still call it overrated

FC Racing Louisville Striker Uchenna Kanu

A versatile player, although she is usually deployed on the left flank, she is capable of playing anywhere along the front line, and has also been used on the right or in the centre. Possessing explosive acceleration, and excellent pace, agility, balance, flair, dribbling skills, as well as physical strength, and trickery on the ball, despite her slender build, she is known for her movement, energy, ability to run at defences, change direction quickly, and beat opponents in one on one situations while in possession of the ball…

But one thing is she tends to overdo sometimes, something that is common with all Nigerian Esthersssss..

Canada 🇨🇦 best set piece taker to miss 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup, The Portland Thorns announced Friday that forward Janine Beckie will miss the remainder of the 2023 season due to a torn ACL in her right knee.


Beckie will have surgery in the coming weeks to repair the injury.

She was hurt in a pre-season match against the US U-23 Women's National Team, as she was stretchered off holding her knee. With the injury, she will miss this summer's Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.

Brooke Nunn: English-born Hibernian forward keen to represent Nigeria

Hibernian forward, Brooke Georgina Nunn says she is relishing the prospect of playing for Nigeria at the senior international level – if the West African country offers the exciting opportunity.
The London-born forward played for Arsenal in the early career days and was part of a successful side that won the Women’s Super League twice, the WSL Cup twice, and the FA Cup, including featuring in the Gunner’s Champions League squad in 2011.


The former Arsenal FC player that the possibility of playing for Super Falcons is brighter now with the recent switch of the likes of Ashleigh Plumptre to the team after featuring for England at the youth level.
“Initially I didn’t think the possibility of playing for the Super Falcons was there a few years back because you don’t often see or hear of players that didn’t grow up in Nigeria within the squad,” Brooke told Nigeriafootball.ng.
“But owing to the paradigm shift in recent years which handed players outside the country who are of Nigerian descent and heritage the possibility to represent the country, has given me hope and faith that I can also have an opportunity to play for Nigeria. I find it very motivating and I want to be a symbol of this possibility.”
Her family was situated in Lagos, where her dad Jackson Asiboje was one of the Directors of a shipping company that is based in Apapa. Representing Nigeria is always important as a player and the Nigeria women’s national team is no doubt the most successful team in Africa with a track record of players with great potential over the years.


Brooke is eligible to play for Nigeria through her mother who is half Nigerian and German. She now harbours the dream of playing for the most successful national team in Africa as an honour.
She added: “I get my Nigerian heritage from my mother as my mother is half Nigerian and half German. She was born in England as was I and didn’t grow up with her parents as she lived in a foster home from an early age.
“I see a reflection of this potential in me and I think being part of the team would be an honour and achievement for me as a footballer. It’s something that fulfills you.”
With nine-time African champions needing more firepower upfront after ending a seven-match losing streak with a 1-0 win over Costa Rica at the maiden Revelation Cup, Brooke is confident of bringing something new to the table.
She said: “I think I could bring many things. I have wealth of experience playing with world-class players, and I have also been playing in arguably one of the best leagues in the world. I would bring my knowledge, wisdom, and positivity to the team and help drive everyone to their full potential.
“I think my strengths are my pace and my fast footwork and I would hopefully bring my creativity and vision on Board to help contribute to getting the best version of the team. I am quite versatile in the attacking positions but my preferred positions are midfield 10 or on the wings.”


In the 2018/2019 season, she moved to the London Bees, where she spent three seasons – making 13 appearances in the FA women’s Championship in her final year. Her performances caught the eye of Hibernian head coach Dean Gibson, who tried to sign her at the beginning of 2021.
However, she stayed in London once more, as she switched to the London City Lionesses in the Summer of 2021 and the forward scored three goals for the Pride in all competitions, helping them to a second-placed finish.
“I was born and raised in London.” Brooke continued. “I started playing football at a very young age, just on the street with the other local kids and having kickabouts in the park.
“I was scouted at school by Arsenal academy at 10 and went through the ranks of U-10, U-12, and U-16 reserves and made it into Arsenal’s first team, winning WSL twice, the WSL Cup twice, and the Women’s FA Cup.
“I was also included in the Gunner’s Champions League squad in 2011. From there I went Into championship teams London Bees and London City Lionesses. I have currently just moved to WSPL for a new start and adventure.
Football has always been a passion of mine and I find it so beautiful to be a language that everyone can speak.”
In 2022 summer transfer, Nunn headed to Izmir, joining Turkish Women’s Super League side, Altay, with whom she spent the first half of the season before returning to the United Kingdom (U.K) to join Hibernian. She hasn’t visited Nigeria but looking forward to the beauty of its culture, especially local delicacies.
“Unfortunately I haven’t, but it Is something I am passionate about and is on my to-do list. As a professional footballer, it’s hard to get time off, and I would want to spend a couple of weeks there to really embrace the culture, especially the food.
“I have received quite a number of positive reviews about many places in Nigeria and I can’t wait to experience the beauty of it myself. I have also heard so much about traditional dishes like Nigerian jollof rice and fufu which I’d love to have a taste someday.”

The story on ground is that Desire Oparanozie is too bold and Courageous they have to do everything to send her out of the team, As she always question them and speak up for her teammates, the decided to remove her and make Asisat Captain thinking Oshoala would take Side with them, at the end Asisat Oshoala had more voice and power, they quickly removed her and made Onome Ebi who doesn’t care about the team but her own glory the Captain…

Another Player they’re scared of again is Ngozi Okobi as she doesn’t take nonsense and would stand up to them…

As it stands Onome Ebi is also part of the team problem right now, Mama @ almost 40 should do and go…

Asisat Oshoala is the Untouchable in the team as any silly mistake from NFF and the Coaching crew the World would know the mess going on in the team..

Anyway let’s watch out for the Update coming….!
