Favour Emmanuel. That's a big move

You guess right… After just one season in Russia🇷🇺, she’s pulling off a big move to the NWSL. Let’s wait for official announcement. But again this girl deserves a look in the SuperFalcons Midfield but she faces stiff competition from Veteran Ayinde, Ucheibe and Abiodun not those Yina Adoo and Chioma Olise.

Favour Emmanuel will be joining Chiamaka Okwuchukwu at San Diego Wave FC under Arsenal Ladies former Coach Jonas Eidevall..


Let me not talk for now, these girls are the future stars of the SuperFalcons, hope they succeed under him!

Hopefully Naomi Girma doesn’t leave as well.

Favour is welcome to Southern California!🎉

Favour is very likely going to be the next big player out of Nigeria. Solid midfielder and absolutely delighted for her.
An SF midfield of JOE, Abiodun and Favour will be real exciting to watch.
Hopefully, the clowns at the NFF will get a coach that will really nurture build these ladies into world class midfield that will rule Africa and hopefully the world. First step is getting rid of the imposter called Magudu and appointing a coach that knows what the heck to do.

Like we need a Real Coach… I just hope the slim lose to France they celebrated isn’t deceiving them because that’s the yardstick they’re using..

SuperFalcons need a Proper Coach! Some of the players complained after the Friendly Game but we can’t make it public here.. Using a Single DM have never been our style from onset. We all know every Coach have his pattern but you need to think well and play to your player/team strength.. We have good CDM

The Midfield is growing, gradually Ayinde might start thinking about how to play her way to retirement from the team in few years time especially now that series of injuries have been disturbing her, her experience is still needed though!

1• Halimatu Ayinde 29yrs🇸🇪
2• Christy Ucheibe 24yrs🇵🇹
3• Deborah Abiodun 21yrs🇺🇸
4• Favour Emmanuel 22yrs🇺🇸
5• Toni Payne 29yrs🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
6• Onyi Echegini 23yrs🇫🇷
7• Esther Onyenezide 21yrs🇮🇱

There are other talents as well especially that Celine Ottah under Randy Waldrum right now, we’re keep an eye on her as she develops..!

Im more worried about the backline that the middle that's choked at this point and will need a super cool tactician to be able to utilize them to max output. Ohale and Alozie....

No big prospect like the middle currently

Right Back shouldn’t pose much problem with Nicole Payne and Miracle Usani on the rise…!

The main worries should be on the Left Back position and good Back Up for Chiamaka Nnadozie.

Chidinma Okeke can as well slot in at CB but we need a like for like replacement for Ohale.

Maureen Umeh the biggest prospects eyes have been on for a while seems not to be ready for the big stage yet as she hasn’t made the big move yet.!

The fair lady Isah from Nasarawa Amazons looks cool as well.

This Favour Emmanuel is another Super talented player!

There are decent Centerbacks in the pipeline who can be groomed:

* Ashleigh Plumptre
* Tosin Demehin
* Christy Ucheibe
* Chidinma Okeke
* Maureen Umeh
* Isah Sikiratu
* Shukura Oladipupo

Not to mention a few others not mentioned here.
More than enough candidates to tide Nigeria over the next 5 - 6 years.

Christy Ucheibe should be left alone in her Midfield position…

🔰 Nigeria SuperFalcons Attacking Midfielder Ngozi Okobi-Oke joins Canadian Clubside Ottawa Rapid FC 🇨🇦

Can you share figures of what the pay is like comparative to Europe, USA, China?

You can’t compare Europa Salaries to USA, China, Saudi Arabia and maybe Mexico.. If you ain’t playing for the big teams in Europe then forget it they pay is small..

But Russia pays well, some of the big names there earn up to €10,000 monthly, In Turkey those big clubs like Fenerbahce, Galatasary, AlG Spors, Besiktes pay €5000 minimum for National Team players and some of your SuperFalcons players in that league earn more than that monthly( Anyways i can’t state their actual figures)…

For Poland the Salary is from €1500 and above depending on how good you are which I’m aware of, Leagues like Albania, Belarus, Lithuania, Kazakhstan still pays btw 800-1000k euros monthly.. The girls don’t earn as it seems.

Go and check while all the talented players have left Sweden in recent years, is because of the pay, if not the standard of play is very okay but the okay is nothing to write home about for a big league like that..

In all, if you want to earn good wages go to USA, England, Mexico, China, Saudi Arabia, Canada, Russia, The Big clubs in Turkey, and then the big clubs in Europe (Especially Champions League Playing Clubs).


Right now for the Canadian League Players in the new Northern Super League will earn at least $50,000 annually which is around 4k+ 💵 monthly
