I don’t knw dis guy agent in Nigeria 🇳🇬 but I believe he needs to change his agent cos when he was even in a decent club in Italy 🇮🇹,his name was hardly mentioned for d national team selection
He's been a decent forward in all the teams he's played for, perhaps getting the bag before retirement is his priority. He's almost 28 already

Alex Iwobi in EPL Top 10 for most completed through ball passes in 24/25 season.

Only African also.

Another pointer to where best we should utilise Iwobi in the Super Eagles.

Karlovych:
Facing strikers such as Lautaro Martinez is different from facing an Nzunga Mulenga in South Africa. Both keepers have their strengths and weaknesses, since Ikeme retired we've been struggling.
Last Afcon saw real stability in our weakest dept goalkeeping with Stanley Nwabali classical displayed.Stanley Nwabali has surpassed Ikeme in eagles

Strikers like Lautaro Martinez not in South Africa league cannot be used to measure Nwabali for some of us who have been watching the games for years.

Good that we have Nwabali and Okoye but Okoye will work his socks off to displace Nwabali.

Was he not there when we had Uzoho? Some one that can't displace Uzoho is that player that will displace Nwabali.

It's high time we move pass all these unserious players.

UPDATE: Manchester United are INTERESTED in Osimhen but there is no agreement.

United are waiting to know whether they will qualify for the Champions League or not to understand the amount that will be spent.

This should not even be a conversation. One player played for us after losing a parent and the other refused to show his face because he made a mistake.

I know its unconfirmed but isn't the reported 250k pounds per week salary small for a player of Osimhen's calibre?

Also, is the 250k pounds before or after tax?
