Sad for Leganes. Might have nicked it and stayed up had that handball in the box been awarded a penalty call.

Anyway, I believe our lads wont be playing Segunda football next season. Omeruo is being linked with Levante who just finished beating Getafe. And Awaziem is on loan. So he will return to Porto and decide his next move. His contract with Porto expires this summer sef.


Meanwhile... Some good news.

Both Samuel Chukwueze and Ramon Azeez will be playing Europa league football next season

Lol... Yes. Congrats to Azubuike Okechukwu and his side Istanbul Basaksehir. Champions of Turkey. UCL secured.

Trabzonspor lost today despite leading 3-1 until 80mins or so... Konyaspor eventually won 4-3. Crazy match. But they remain in the Champions league spot. Would be nice to see Nwakaeme in the UCL as great reward for his efforts this season.
I think Trabzonspor will be serving a 1 year Europe ban

I was supporting Trabzonspor to win the league but as soon as that issue with Mikel that made him terminate his contract i changed my mind to the Istanbul boys

More Good News

Coach Ndubuisi Egbo has won the Albanian League title with his side, K.F. Tirana.

Their closest rival on the table, Kukesi lost several moments ago by 1-0.

So with two games to go for all teams, Egbo's men hold a 7 points lead over Kukesi. They cannot be caught even if they lose their remaining two games.

Congrats are in order for Coach Ndubuisi Egbo. smiley

He has secured a place in the Uefa Champions League playoff rounds.

Hopefully he does a double as he has a Cup final date with Teuta on August 2nd.

Oh they were banned? Not aware of this. Well, that's quite unfortunate. So no European football for Nwakaeme. Na wa.

Na Adnan Januzaj give Sociedad sixth. In the 87th min vs Atletico Madrid. They were sitting in 8th but with that equaliser, they climbed to sixth even above Granada (thanks to better goals difference/H2h) who ended up in 7th and 7th place is the final European spot in La Liga.

Getafe messed things up by losing to Levante.

I really haven't read or seen any signs of Getafe wanting to make Etebo's deal permanent. I know they made Cucurella's deal permanent. But nothing on Etebo.

You can see how useless they are

What’s next for Kenneth omeruo ?

Mehn... Kenneth cannot afford to go down to the Segunda. That would be bad for his Super Eagles Career. Let's see if offers come in for him as he had a very decent season. It's only Levante that has been rumored to be showing interest.

Omeruo won’t go down as I have already said earlier before

Eibar levante and co should not hard him to play for

Awaziem is a Porto player so I hope for a new loan first division club in Europe top 5 leagues or a permanent selling

Seems he has been offered a permanent deal. It would be nice to see him feature for his club in the Champions League which might earn him a recall to the super eagles

And won a pk for Lukaku's equaliser.

According to Oma Akatugba Who dropped the exclusives on Osimhen's Medicals being done and transfer update which he said would be made official by Tuesday or latest wednesday, Vic could be costing Napoli €81 million euros.

Likely breakdown is €50 million + Adam Ounas (worth €31million) OR €51 million euros + Adam Ounas (worth €30million).

Now that's an African record if confirmed officially.


And I think it's really cool Vic is permitting his entourage to give the privilege of exclusive info around his transfer to a Nigerian Journalist of international standing but not only because of that. It's because they have a good relationship and an understanding. That's some fine home bond. A brotherhood thing. Class act from Vic.

So other Journos looking to get an exclusive bite off the transfer of Vic would inevitably reference Oma.

Ladies and Gentlemen.... The transfer drama is about to come to a sweet end and a new chapter shall truly begin for our Super Lad, Osimhen. Stay tuned.

I like the fact that he's giving Oma the exclusive gist, many Nigerian journalist have complained about the attitude of our players, specifically Ndidi they said he doesn't grant interviews to local journalist.

komekn:
Bournemouth AFC forward players
Josh King
Callum Wilson
Stanislas Jnr.
Arnaut Danjuma
Dominic Solanke

He was never supposed to be their key source of goals. They paid £20 million for potential not yet realised, he had after 21 games scored one goal for Liverpool. They expected him to be a lot better than he is and he is a great disappointment.

They should have got a proven goal scorer with Danny Ings but they did not.

Solanke was not even rated by the coaches we were all shocked when we saw the transfer fee. All l can say he was well marketed.
You think you are sleek abi, you listed players that aren't out and out strikers as his competitors you then put him as last on the pecking list. Solanke is a waste man that can't do well in EPL, after playing for 3 Epl teams he can't even boast of 10 league goals, he should count himself lucky if he can get a league 2 team to take him on loan

TheLoneCitizen:
So fact: No statistic website covers Belgium.

At least one statistics site covers Belgium albeit unofficially.

By now you should have updated your knowledge just by being here. You are well operating on a DOS system when we have moved to Windows 10 and beyond.

Even Lukaku who you would term a typical number 9 played wing at Manchester United.

We talk about forward players now not just strikers, why because they interchange with positions.

To quote you verbatim ;

Bournemouth set to be relegated, Solanke has blood on his hands, he's supposed to be their key source of goals but he failed them with just a paltry 2 goals to his nam


My point was to educate you that Solanke was never meant to be thier number one striker. So your proposition is simply not true, you lack knowledge and understanding.

In all the time you have been here you have not learned much. Sad
