At this point, the Moroccan trio of Yassine Bounou, Sofyan Amrabat and Achraf Hakimi lead the way for the APOTY. But, I trust Osimhen will be STRONGLY in the mix of heavy favorites for the award if he keeps this up and finishes the season with a League Title and even add the Copacannoniere award as bonus. That will be huge for his Chances. Don't forget he is also the current Top Scorer of the Afcon Qualifiers. These and probably how far he takes Napoli in the UCL could also add more strength to his claims. So yep, Our Boy has a shot. andrewbaba44: 2 Likes |

charlesemeka85:Oga Charles,I can say much about Yak,right from Okomu Oil fc to Julius Berger fc and when he was in U23 camp in Ilorin.He looked lazy without ball but very deadly inside box but that missed against South Korea is the worst in World Cup history and it negate his profile as a good CF and Nigerians till today didn't forgive him 1 Like |

If you have been following my players updates across Europe since last year, then this name won't be new to you. Winter Transfer Update: Rafiu Adekunle Durosinmi From Viktoria Plzen's site: VIKTORIA WILL BE STRENGTHENED BY 20-YEAR-OLD STRIKER RAFIU DUROSINMI Viktoria Plzeň presents its third winter signing, Rafiu Adekunle Durosinmi. The 20-year-old Nigerian forward comes on a six-month loan with an option from the second division Karviná. The young attacker has had a very successful autumn in the Karviné jersey, where he was one of the key men. "He is a talented player who has excellent speed, height and age parameters to make the next step in his career, and I believe that he can take this step right here," says Daniel Kolář, the sports director of Viktoria Durosinmi. "We promise him that he will increase the competition in our team and fight for his chance," he adds. The 20-year-old Durosinmi comes on a six-month loan with a subsequent option. During Monday afternoon, he will be fully involved in Viktoria's training and on Wednesday he will fly with the team to Benidorm, Spain. "I am happy that I got such a chance. I watched Victoria's matches in the Champions League, they are a really big team and I have to do my best to be able to make it," Durosinmi is clear. In the Karviné jersey, the attacker played in fifteen games in the fall, in which he scored three goals and registered five assists. He also scored four goals in this year's Mol Cup. A graduate of the football academy in Lagos, Nigeria's largest city, he came to the Czech Republic two years ago and went through the Karviné youth academy, where he subsequently made it to the first team. He will wear the number 17 on his jersey in Victoria. 1 Like 1 Share

This post below is dated November 5, 2022. One out of several posts that mentioned Rafiu Adekunle Durosinmi at his former club, MFK Karvina. This post also mentioned a curtain Moses David Cobnan. Both these lads secured moves this winter window. Moses David Cobnan upgraded to FC Krasnodar in Russia. Rafiu joins Czech Giants, Viktoria Plzen. Another upgrade. The Coverage of Naija lads across Europe will continue as always. You never know where the next diamond may come from afterall. TheSuperNerd: 1 Like 1 Share |

I understood your context. But you see, Okala and Ogedegbe were both at the 1980 Afcon, not so? Okala was also at the 1978 Afcon. Maybe Chief Icon4s didn't see the 1973 All African games shaa. Coz I know Okala was there too. Finally, Okala was a mega star with the Legendary Enugu Rangers of yore in the 70s so I am guessing he must have seen him at some point.

TheSuperNerd:In 1980,Okala has lost it which saw Ogedegbe benching him.Emma Okala was undisputed number one from 1972--1979.My Dad took me to stadia as a kid to watch Okala and that was 1977 WC qualifier against Tunisia but I can't say anything about him,all I know was watching players running up and down but I watched Best Ogedegbe till he left the game in 1986 with Abiola Babes. |

I know Ogedegbe was first choice at 1980 Afcon. Okala was in that Squad but second fiddle to him hence my statement that both were at the 1980 Afcon edition. Or am I not correct? And yes, Okala was number 1 pre-1980. My dad told me he had this trademark kung-fu strike he gave to attacking players when he goes for aerial balls. I had to go gather more info on the man. Giant of a GK I found him out to be. Damn. And you watched Ogedegbe live... that's cool. That he conceeded only one goal at the 1980 Afcon is something I still admire when going down our GK history at major tournaments. Kog45: 2 Likes 1 Share |

We cover them all here naa. I am always interested. Haba. During the Wafu B U20 and U17 competitions, I was very much present naa. I even dropped various coverages and Stats on the lads. I understand the culture then was to specially open threads dedicated to the U17s, U20s & U23s but I think covering them all in here is still okay. So relax, the passion hasn't drowned at all. jieta: 1 Like 1 Share |

AFCON, for ages, has been won on fine margins. I reiterate it has nothing to do with coaching! I can give you numerous examples but I do not really have the time! One example proves nothing in scholarly research! Joebie: |
