Barcelona’s appeal to register Gavi has been rejected in court, meaning he will return to a youth contract and lose his No. 6 shirt.

The youth contract also includes a clause that allows him to leave on a free in the summer. Barça will further appeal, reports The Athletic


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

No need to laugh it’s not like he’s gonna sign with another team that’s not gonna happen.

I’m not a Barca fan but gavi is going nowhere.

Super Eagles decline.

Super Eagles: Corruption and Incompetence Score More Goals Than The Players.

The Super Eagles of Nigeria have been on a downward spiral lately, and it seems that corruption and incompetence have become their most valuable players.

It's no surprise that the Super Eagles have been struggling in recent times, with more focus on lining pockets and playing politics than actually playing the game.

It's high time the Nigerian Football Federation took a long, hard look at the state of the Super Eagles and made some serious changes before it's too late.

Super Eagles: Over-Reliance on Foreign-Born Players Who Couldn't Make the Cut In Their Home Countries

The Super Eagles of Nigeria seem to be relying more and more on foreign-born players who couldn't make the cut in their home countries. It's almost like the Super Eagles are the team of last resort for these players.

The Nigerian Football Federation needs to ask themselves whether they want a team of players who are proud to wear the Nigerian jersey or just a bunch of rejects looking for a second chance. It's time to focus on developing local talent and building a team that can truly compete at the highest level.

Maybe it's time to start a "Bring Back the Super Eagles" campaign and bring back the glory days of Nigerian football which I have started on Nairaland sports section.We can't keep relying on players who couldn't make it in their home countries or country of birth to save us. It's time for a change.

I watched highlights of u17 of 07 and 09. These guys and those guys are similar in age bracket. Of course we know they aren't.


Sometimes i wonder how we were able to host the u17 world cup that year. It looks like no be Nigeria host am. Cos...😂😂

Borjan retirement made me go watch highlights.

These current set are fathers by far.

A 28 year old will be parading as u23

This is why a lot of people hate me here....lol

I have been hammering on this, that these foreign rejects will destroy our super eagles. Imagine inviting a clueless Iwobi and a Aribo then left Nwakali behind. Its leaves me with a rage! Did you guys see the shot Iwobi attempted at this last premiership game his club played....it was embarrassing, as always. Both Aribo and Iwobi are going to the championship to continue their mediocre career but in Nigeria they are worshipped as Super Stars by Nigerians who worship anything foreign. These two mediocre midfielders will be manning our midfield with another back pass legend, Ndidi and expect the eagles to fly.

You hire foreign coaches who doesn't respect the black man nor in our talent. The average Nigerian doesn't understand the way the white man see us, the blacks hence their excitement as soon as they hear a white man is coming. The whites see us from a condescending position not from a place of respect.

Iwobi and Aribo have no business being in our super eagles. It's a mockery of our national team

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

He will collect his number 6 back or at worst he will be registered under the youth and play for the first team with number 30 as he has been doing

No be today ,Laporta will drag tebas by his balls as usual since he is always shameless and can’t hide his hate for Barcelona ,a league president that openly support Madrid

If you think Gavi will leave Barcelona ,then you must also believe onuachu will win the ballon d or soon

All things considered, I would rather have a Lookman on that left wing space in a front 3.

But the thing is we are currently parading a midfield selection that is limited and maybe only good enough to dispatch Bissau-kind of threats but not good enough in the long run to hold their own tactically/technically against much tougher African opposition.

With a more balanced midfield selection behind them, I am definitely having Lookman over Simon in that front 3. Better decision making, better ball carries, better link up plays, better use of space/half spaces.

So this frying pan to furnace don reach our sports finish like person wear agbada?

Anyways, these guys are taking up caps for their teams mehnnnnnn. Just one African on the list sadly. Like how can we reach 150caps for anybody. The women's team is still the 100+ caps sha. But see cr7...since 03. That's like at the prime of Jay Jay Okocha and now he's outcapped 7sets of u17 players which Nigeria wwas well repped in.🌚



Factors, i know.

Africans cannot reach this caps ,we play small amount of games compared to them

You guys do not seize to amaze me. Always comparing with the Europeans playing on their continent!
So you expect them to put resources scouting talents in Nigeria academies when they can easily do that on their continent. It is like saying cos Nigerian clubs are not scouting players from east africa therefore their federation is rubbish! Does that make sense?
The coach just invited a guy from Yum Yum fc yet many of you guys are crying all over TL. Investing in football in advanced countries is by private institutions. It is only in africa you expect your leaders to do everything for you!
If someone listen to you guys one would think Nigeria just hire players and there are no academies in the country!
TheGoodJoe:


zuchyblink is not writing bull crap. That is a list you put out there but what is the ratio of those guys being quality players in top clubs? Our footballing pool is not up to par with some of the top teams in the world. Look at Manchester City, last season we had Bernardo Silva, Joao Cancelo, and Ruben Dias, all from one country. When you branch out to other clubs, you will see loads of Portuguese talents.

While ours can't even scratch their surface. Most of these our players will not break into top national teams. They will not even make the bench. That highlights how poor our pool is and his proposition will help do that.

However, the problem in Nigeria is that the elites are more interested in looting the system. What he is proposing will require vast investment and the elites will prefer it in their bank accounts.

I hate that they've put a pause to the consistency we were having with the age grade teams. We saw how 2013 to 19 u17 were that produced Nacho, Nwakali, Osimhen and Co. Now, it's like the old men are clamoring and some fellows in nff are in support of return to the retrogressive old ways of mendem in age grade levels.



Senegal have been consistent for too long with doing it the right way now that they are too good for even our old mendems at the u20 AYC.

Averagely 10games per year or more. Doing that for a decade w/out injuries should see 70caps+competition appearances. 100 should be a consistent number for many african ballers by now. But sadly, asides lesser amount of games, the form issue plus foolish trasnfer window decisions.
