Nigerian Midfielder Mikel To Marry Girlfriend A Week After AFCON Qualifier Vs South Africa Published: May 17, 2017 According to information gathered by allnigeriasoccer.com, Nigerian midfielder Mikel Agu is set to marry his long-term girlfriend on June 17, a week after the Super Eagles face South Africa in an African Cup of Nations qualifier. The Porto loanee will tie the knot in a ceremony in Asaba and has invited several Super Eagles stars to grace the occasion. Mikel and his partner welcomed a baby boy, Stefano, in January; he has been dating her for more than two years, and she lived with him in Belgium during his loan spell with Club Brugge. It is understood that the midfielder's father and mother are presently in Portugal to herald the birth of their grandson. Things are getting better and better for Mikel. He recently extended his contract with Porto until 2021 and has been invited to the Super Eagles for the first time in his career. Ifeanyi Emmanuel 1 Like |

I haven't watched Uche Agbo enough to know if I would rate him over Onazi tho. All in all, based on current form, Ndidi is a shoo-in and Onazi and co should be fighting for the remaining spot. However, I would expect Rhor to stick with Onazi especially in the absence of Mikel since Onazi is the vice captain. O pari junnyjake: |

tbaba1234: Must have mixed up my instances but this doesn't mean that Enyimba was trying to hold him back. This a club that has stood by the young man through everything. The season after his record Mfon fell seriously sick and was out of football. The next one he could never get up to speed in the league even though he was the CCL top scorer. They stuck by him when other clubs might have released him. Mfon is now captain of the club and a much more complete player. |

This is exactly what I said on the game thread yesterday!! Like I had said over and over again, only Arsene Wenger can explain why he had decided to sentence I wobi to the bench. I have watched ALL Arsenal's game this year and I can tell you that Alex has always given a good account of himself each time he's called upon to play.

Don't mind them, let them stick with Wenger. They would probably not make top 7 next season. And I am not kidding either....I would expect Everton to finish above them next season, along with the usual suspects - Chelsea, ManCity, Man Utd, Spurs, Liverpool. O pari AIG07: |

And Awaziem follows in the footsteps of Fellow Super Eagle, Kelechi Iheanacho.... ![]() --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chidozie Awaziem On Target As Porto Thrash Sunderland To Win PL Int'l Cup ![]() Super Eagles invitee Chidozie Awaziem found the net as Porto thrashed Sunderland 5-0 in the final of the Premier League International Cup on Wednesday night at the Stadium of Light. Josh Maja, who was handed a late call-up to the national team's training camp in March, and Sweden U21 international of Nigerian heritage Joel Asoro started for the Black Cats, while ex-Flying Eagles sensation Musa Yahaya was a non-playing substitute for Porto. The visitors had put the game to bed at the end of the first half as they were leading 3-0, courtesy of brace from Galeano and an additional tally from Pereira on the strike of half-time. On 55 minutes, Awaziem added more gloss to the scoreline when he peeled away at the far post to place a header beyond Max Stryjek. Josh Maja came very close to a goal in the 65th minute but his effort went narrowly wide, and Asoro was almost credited with an assist a minute later, only for Luke Molyneux to volley just over the bar. **Igho Kingsley Source: http://allnigeriasoccer.com/read_news.php?nid=23082 1 Like |

Funny.... but I see Musa still leaving ...... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Shakespeare Hints Musa , Other Leicester Player Not Leaving This Summer ![]() Leicester City boss, Craig Shakespeare, has revealed that no player has approached the club over a possible move away from the club this summer reports, Completesportsnigeria.com. Ahmed Musa has been a bit part player for the club since the exit of Claudio Ranieri and has since been linked with a summer move away from The Foxes. Musa has made 20 appearances (seven starts and 13 substitute appearances), and has scored two Premier League goals this term for The Foxes. In his Wednesday's pre-match press conference, Shakespeare said: "No player has expressed any desire to leave this football club, to me or the owners. "We just want the 3 points and the prize money will look after itself. The highest we can finish is 8th, so let’s try that. "Until the club have sat down with Marcin (Wasilewski) it would be unfair for me to say anything on his future." Leicester City are 11th in the EPL log and will face Tottenham Hotspur in Thursday's penultimate game of the season at the King Power Stadium before battling AFC Bournemouth on Sunday.

Began to look at Granada his Agbos team and thier recent history and current team stats and noticed, the team has very few Spanish players and it is reflected in thier playing style. IT seems they are set up as a business to sell players acquired for nothing but sold for plenty. furthermore. they lack in-depth quality Finally he is stretching his football age of 21. |

West Ham Bound Onyekuru Strikes Again, Ties Olarewaju Kayode As Nigeria’s Top Scorer In Europe ![]() Hot in demand Nigerian forward Henry Onyekuru scored his 23rd goal of the season in all competitions to fire Eupen to a 2-0 win over Royal Excel Mouscron. 19 year old Onyekuru struck in the 72nd minute to wrap up a comprehensive victory for his team in the Belgium Europa League play-offs. The third game in a row he is finding the back of the net. The goal also ties him with Olarewaju Kayode of Austria Wien as Nigeria’s top scoring player in Europe who also has 23 goals for his Austrian side. However while Kayode has been rewarded with a call up to the senior Nigeria national team, Onyekuru is yet to be considered for selection by the Franco-German coach of the Nigerian team Gernot Rohr. As exclusively reported by this portal few hours ago, he will sign the dotted lines for English Premier League side West Ham, if talks progressed as expected regarding his personal terms after a fee was agreed for his transfer in the summer. **Osas Mahawi Source: http://owngoalnigeria.com/2017/05/17/west-ham-bound-onyekuru-strikes-again-ties-olarewaju-kayode-as-nigerias-top-scorer-in-europe/ 1 Like |
