thought he was that arsenal kid miguel azeez beloso. Turns out he is Miguel's elder brother.
chrisooblog:
Dream debut for the Milwall winger.

Took his goals very well. Love his direct and intentional play despite having some ball skills.

Still needs assessing but I'll be lying if I say I'm not excited with what he could potentially bring to the SE.

Like a poster said one time you will watch a player feature just one time in the GWG and you know he's the real deal. Azeez already giving me those vibes.

Let see how he fares against Jamaica who will be tougher opposition.

Femi Azeez reminds me of the legendary Nigerian whiz kid winger cum striker, Osaze.
His runs and direct play.
His eyes are on the goals
His ability to use both feet well.
His top-notch crossing ability.
His ability to dribble past opponents.

I expect Coach Eric Chelle to include him in the June friendlies.
Coach Eric Chelle said he still have to improve in some area of his game after the match

Crazy they have only 4 midfielders and more defenders lmaoo, reminds me of those annoying days under Rohr and Peseiro when they listed only 4 midfielders and overload the defence and attack.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS

MILLWALL REJECT £20M IPSWICH TOWN BID FOR SUPER EAGLES FORWARD FEMI AZEEZ

Millwall have rejected a £20 million bid from Ipswich Town for Super Eagles and Millwall forward Femi Azeez.

The 24-year-old Nigeria international is under contract at The Den until 2028 and has attracted strong interest following an impressive campaign in the Championship, where he scored 11 goals and registered seven assists this season.

Femi Azeez also made an instant impact on the international stage yesterday, making his Super Eagles debut in Nigeria’s 2–0 win over Zimbabwe in the Unity Cup semi-final, scoring both goals to send the team into the final.

Millwall are holding out for a fee closer to £30 million for Azeez, given his age, form, and the length remaining on his contract.

Ipswich Town are keen to strengthen their attack after securing promotion back to the Premier League, with manager Kieran McKenna looking to build a squad capable of staying up this time around.

However, the Tractor Boys are not the only club interested. Aston Villa, Bournemouth, Crystal Palace, and Sunderland have also been linked with a move for Azeez.

Hmm. Rohr like squad with a midfield leaner than shakira's waist Altho zwane is essentially an AM. Broos likes playing 4-2-3-1 with forster as a lone striker so most of these forward players will play in the midfield anyways. Just as they did in their last world cup appearance 16 years ago they will once again open the tournament against mexico. Not holding any hope out for them altho mexico isnt really that big a deal again.

Think he has played in the euros for them already.
These guys are already playing for their dream teams so i doubt they will find happiness playing in teams they dont like just because of lineage. National team assignment isnt as financially rewarding as club football so i guess playing for the countries they grew up in means a lot more to them than playing for one just because of racial heritage. To us the supporters its obviously not what we want but at the end of the day they will do what they feel is best for them.

Hmm. I wonder how many african football federations still exist as an extension of government as in still receives majority of its funding from the government rather than existing as a separate brand like the english FA, brazilian FA etc. Is there any at all that can stand alone?

Sports is still seen and operated as a social service in Africa not as an industry. It’s also a good political tool used by govt and politicians so letting it become an industry will be hard.

Jonathan Spiff Asuzu, 19y/o Naija-argentine striker (CF) who declared for Nigeria last year played 12mins+ off the bench for River Plate in their 3-0 win vs Blooming (Bolivia) in the 2026 Copa Sudamericana first round group stage.

It was his 2nd senior appearance for River Plate in the ongoing Copa Sudamericana after a 1min+ cameo debut on May 21.



Below is a video of him and his father (Godwin Asuzu) in Nigeria holding a press conference and wishing the U20 Team well, reaffirming Jonathan's commitment to the Nigerian football team.
