Everton Target Onyekuru Confesses – I Could Join Everton, Club Brugge Or Anderlecht



Hot in demand Nigerian forward Henry Onyekuru has played down rumours linking him with a host of clubs by narrowing the chase for his signature in the summer to just three clubs.


19 year old Onyekuru has emerged as the bride of many teams in Europe due to his goal scoring exploits this season at modest side Belgian side Eupen ‎in his first season in the top flight.


The Nigerian who has scored 20 goals in all competitions this season is heavily linked with a move to four English teams in Crystal Palace, Everton, West Brom and Southampton.


Teams in Germany have also been linked with the forward, but speaking to Voetbalkrant Onyekuru said there’s every possibility of him joining either Everton or fellow Belgian side Anderlecht or Club Brugge in the summer.


” I truly don’t have anything to say for now regarding my possible destination in the summer. I’m sure I won’t be at Eupen. Everton, Club Brugge or Anderlecht? It’s possible I join one of the three in the summer”, he told Voetbalkrant.

Chelsea Ola Aina Will Be Cleared By FIFA Before South Africa Game – NFF Assures



The international future of Chelsea teen defender Ola Aina will be ratified by world soccer governing body FIFA before the Super Eagles take on South Africa in the AFCON 2019 Qualifiers in Uyo on the 10th of June.


Aina represented England at various youth level, but switched allegiance to Nigeria last month after talks with head coach Gernot Rohr who subsequently invited the player for the team’s training camp in London.


The Chelsea teen back impressed the manager who has now handed him a call up for the upcoming get together of the team later in the month in France, as part of their preparations for the AFCON 2019 Qualifiers against South Africa.


However his international switch is yet to be approved by FIFA, but a member of the NFF has hinted that it will be sorted out before the game against South Africa.


” Aina won’t play against Corsica due to club duties, but he will join the team after the game, all things been equal he should play in the friendly game we are trying to arrange after the game against Corsica “, he told Owngoalnigeria.com.


” For the game against South Africa, you know his switch requires clearance from FIFA. We (NFF) have started the process and hopefully it will be sorted out before the South Africa game. As a matter of fact it should work”.

Pellegrini Refuses To Rule Out Move For Iheanacho – I’m Looking At Signing Some Players From My Old Team

The coach was responding to questions on possible additions to his squad in the summer from Europe, and the former Malaga, Villarreal and Manchester City manager said he is open to the idea.


” There are players who have worked with in the past that am looking at. For now we are not close to signing any player but in the coming days we could be involved in some transfers”, he reportedly told the media in China.

” I won’t mention names of the players I have contacted over a possible move in the summer, as a mark of respect for their current clubs. But we will do some business in the summer”.

Man City Insider – How Guardiola Destroyed The Confidence Of Iheanacho



Highly informed Manchester City insider Simon Bajkowski says Manchester City Nigerian forward Kelechi Iheanacho should leave the club permanently this summer.


Iheanacho has not featured regularly for City this season as manager Pep Guardiola prefers other strikers ahead of the Nigerian, who signed a new contract till the summer of 2021 nine months ago.


Bajkowski believes the manager played a role in stifling the 20 year old, who has been severally shut out of the matchday squads this season, and looks set to end the season with fewer starts and goals than last year, when many felt former manager Manuel Pellegrini ‎was holding him back.


“In January, his absence from squads was explained by saying City hadn’t created many chances “for this kind of player”, he wrote in his column.


“In short, Guardiola doesn’t value what the 20-year-old can offer, Yaya Toure has forced his way back into the team, Aleks Kolarov and Jesus Navas have surprised in new positions and Fernandinho has popped up in most areas of the pitch.


“That has not happened with Iheanacho despite absences for Aguero and Jesus, which suggests a permanent move would be better for him than a loan.

Better for the player to take his talent elsewhere to a team that does suit his playing style. A clinical finisher, Iheanacho should not have a problem finding a top team”.

Ex Eagles Striker Victor Agali Warns Rohr Over Mafia In Super Eagles – They Could Hijack The Team



Former Schalke 04 striker Victor Agali says coach of the Super Eagles Gernot Rohr has to be wary of mafia springing up in the camp of the Super Eagles, because it could lead to his downfall as coach of the team.


Rohr is yet to taste defeat since taking charge of the Super Eagles of Nigeria with the friendly game against ‎Senegal, the only game he has drawn in the four games he has handled the team.


Agali who represented Nigeria at U-23 and senior level however warns the manager to put his sight on cliques emerging in the team, so it won’t destroy the team spirit.


” I urge Rohr to work more on the unity of the team. Players love keeping caucus whenever they are on national team duty.


” I’m saying this base on experience. I urge the technical crew to keep close watch on the way some of the upcoming or home based will be treated compared to the big goon’s in the team. Failure to do this will be very dangerous “, he told Sports Village Square.

Chelsea Ace Victor Moses Reveals Secret Of Marking Out Wingers As Wingback



High flying Chelsea wingback Victor Moses has revealed the secrets of being a successful wingback following his meteoric rise at Chelsea this season in the role handed to him by coach Antonio Conte.


Moses has moved from the player who spent the last three seasons on loan to an integral part of the team that is challenging for honours this season on two fronts.


The 27 year old has ‎metamorphosed into one of the finest wingback in England this season, a rapid transformation from his original role as a wing forward.


“He (Conte) didn’t say to me, “Do I fancy playing wing back?” He just put me in there, and after that he just kept on encouraging me,’ Moses said.


‘He went through what the position was all about, constantly talking to me in training to make sure I was improving in it. I took that in and I didn’t look back.


‘I have been learning a lot defensively. And when I play against a winger I understand what they are going to do before they try and go past me, so it makes it a lot easier.’

Spanish La-Liga side Malaga are close to finalising the transfer of Nigeria Rio 2016 star Imoh Ezekiel, Owngoalnigeria.com can exclusively reveal.


The 23 year old who was ever present for Nigeria at the Rio 2016 Olympic where they won bronze is apparently frustrated with life in Qatar where he plays for Al-Arabi following his shock move two seasons ago.


Malaga cashed in on his unhappiness in Qatar, and with a year left to run on his current deal he could be allow to leave on a cheap by the Qatari side who risk losing him for free in 12 months time when his contract runs out.


This season, he has ‎found the back of the net 8 times in 24 games despite playing as a winger in most of the games he has featured for the team as opposed to his role as the main striker.

Exclusive – German -Nigerian Forward Sarenren Bazee Issued Nigerian Passport, Set For SA Battle



Hannover 96 German-Nigerian forward Noah Joel Sarenren Bazee has finally secured his Nigeria international passport, Owngoalnigeria.com can exclusively reveal.


The 20 year old Hannover 96 forward has difficulties in securing a Nigerian passport, and almost played his first international game for Nigeria against Senegal in a friendly with a German passport before injury, before injury forced him out of the tie.


Coach of the Nigerian team Gernot Rohr also expressed his unhappiness over the difficulties some players born abroad have faced in their bid to secure a Nigerian passport, after switching allegiance to Nigeria.


However Sarenren Bazee has been issued a Nigerian passport, which gives him the all clear to represent Nigeria in international games, with the AFCON 2019 clash against South Africa looming.


Owngoalnigeria.com can exclusively reveal that the forward who is in line to train with the Nigerian team in their camp in France, and probably play in the friendly against Corsica got his Nigerian passport few weeks ago.

Man City Turn Down Hoffeinheim Proposal To Buy Iheanacho After Proposed Loan Stint
May 12, 2017 Nigeria


IMG_2892
Manchester City have turned down a proposal from Bundesliga side Hoffeinheim to buy Nigerian forward Kelechi Iheanacho after the end of his proposed loan spell.

Hoffeinheim are presently locked in talks with Manchester City over the 20 year old who has fallen down the pecking order at the Etihad as exclusively reported by this portal last month.

However a deal is far from reached even though the forward has made it clear to City that he is leaving and the club on their part have accepted his decision, they still want him to leave on loan with no option of a permanent transfer in the summer.

The German side want to negotiate a deal that will see the forward spend a loan at the club before moving over permanently next summer if he impresses ‎, they want the fee for his permanent transfer to be agreed as well.

However Manchester City are insisting on a straight loan with no option of permanent transfer, presumably to strengthen their bargaining power if Iheanacho comes good during the course of his loan spell.

rohr obviously knows what he's doing.
he has a plan and knows the kind of players that fit into it .
you don't expect him to present his list to these people and they start criticizing the list saying this player isn't good enough or that player should not be selected since he knows what he wants
he knows these people won't agree to his list
now there is a problem, rohr has to do something about this, he has to find a way to unite the nff committee and players too, so he does not end up failing

as for nosa igiebor , that guy is definitely silly.
he has forgotten he plays for Nigeria, a country with a lot of good footballers and he's very replaceable.... instead of ranting, he should be working harder so he can secure a move to a bigger league and gain his place back in the national team. by the way, which super eagles midfielder was he ranting he was better than is it Mikel, ndidi or etebo? hehehe nawa ooo

I dont know where in this universe. It's totally new to me..

That's why I mentioned especially if it (dark skin) wraps a body that is muscular. The point I was trying to make was to support the fact that GENERALLY darkness /dark is taken to represent the yang (masculine) in the yin/yang equation.

I have a lady friend that has almost a visceral dislike for fair complexioned guys.

Did you read the popular Mills & Boons(M&B)? Girly stuff but I read them in my teens cos I had sisters and female cousins bringing them around. I remember that many of the authors - no doubt (white) - used to describe their male white characters as swarthy, dark, intense etc. I used to wonder why knowing this were white guys. Now I understand.

@Joebie do let the matter rest. Let's get back to football before this snowballs into a long, intractable argument like the education issue.
