Sorry but the date reads March 8th naa.... what is the source sef?

In the report it says Kayode has scored 8goals in 22 apps. But we know he has way more than that....

Sir Whizola... this looks like old news from months ago... why post it?

kingphilip:
This season, he has scored eight goals in 22 appearances in the Austrian Bundesliga after he netted 13 goals in the last campaign.This week, he told a radio station that were he chanced, he would demand answers from Rohr to why he has again been snubbed by the Super Eagles.“If I had the opportunity to speak with Rohr, i will ask him to check my profile and also why I haven’t got an invitation,” he said in the interview.

This one too de make mouth Can you imagine

Even Henry Onyekuru was invited due to somebody withdrawing and someone with just 8 goals is complaining

I recall telling you that Sweden was a good launch pad for a young player like Chisom to make a bigger move to a better league, a fact you disputed citing academy players move to big clubs from Nigeria. You will excuse me if I'm a bit surprised you're proposing the same Sweden as a gateway to bigger leagues.

From reports, I understand Chisom is doing well and his club are very happy with him so much that they have paid off his loan fee. He even scored a brace in a friendly. Why he haven't featured in the league remains unknown. The league in Sweden is still young, I know he will get his chance at some point. The loan arrangement could work in favour of his owners, he could hit a run for form during the season( he is more than capable of this) , which could see his price tag triple in advantage this owners and a loss for Haecken.

tbaba1234:


If Chisom was 18-22, I would have said, good move.. He has time. He is already in his mid 20s. Meaning, he has less time.

He has not played a single second, since he joined. That is terrible. Not even when they are chasing a goal. This is a mid table Swedish side. He has not been injured because he is usually on the bench.

Next year, he is 26 and could have had a less than remarkable season in Sweden. He will be getting to the age where Europeans do not risk buying African players.

Was ‘bad boy’ Kayode dropped by top NFF officials?
By admin - March 8, 2017378 0


Kayode Olanrewaju
Sources close to Olanrewaju Kayode have insisted the Austria-based striker was very much in the plans of Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr, but he was eventually dropped from the squad for this month’s friendlies in London because some top NFF officials branded him “a bad boy”.

“Kayode has maintained that he was called up by Rohr, but he was eventually dropped because some top officials said he will never play for Nigeria again because he ‘messed’ up one of their ogas some years ago,” said a source close to the former Nigeria U17 and U20 striker.

This was in reference to his transfer saga that involved former top NFF chief Taiwo Ogunjobi and Ivorian club ASEC Mimosas.

The 23-year-old Kayode has been linked with a move to the Premier League in England on the back of his form at Austria Wien.

This season, he has scored eight goals in 22 appearances in the Austrian Bundesliga after he netted 13 goals in the last campaign.

This week, he told a radio station that were he chanced, he would demand answers from Rohr to why he has again been snubbed by the Super Eagles.

“If I had the opportunity to speak with Rohr, i will ask him to check my profile and also why I haven’t got an invitation,” he said in the interview.

The Austria Vienna striker also questioned scouting and yardsticks used to invite players to the Super Eagles

“I think the Super Eagles scouting needs to be extensive enough to consider players who are active in their clubs,” he urged.

“There is no way a player who sits on the bench can be fit enough or better than the one who plays regularly.”

I think I should bring this to the notice of folks here. This Ebuka Okeke kid is something special. I caught the last 35 mins of this encounter against Gombe, one word to describe what I saw was "WOW". This kid dazzled, teased skipped past people for fun all night long. Before he scored the winner, he left about 3 players on their backside before the goalkeeper foiled his attempt. He basically scored with the last kick of the game, after skipping past 2 people and finishing in the bottom corner.
I make bold to say he is the Nigerian version of Mbappe. Anyone opportuned to watch a Rangers game should keep an eye out for the No 9. He is the real deal.

From Obiagu comes Ebuka, the new hero at Rangers


Rangers left it late to secure victory over troubled Gombe United in Sunday's Match Day 20 encounter in Enugu. It took the brilliant intervention of home boy Ebuka Okeke to score the game's winner after 93 minutes to send the home fans celebrating.
Godwin Aguda had replied Waheed Afolabi's shocking opener for the visitors in first half stoppage time but with both teams poised to end another tumultuous clash in stalemate just like in the reverse fixture in Gombe, substitute Okeke who had been lively since he came on for Bobby Clement just before the hour mark received the ball from Omo Johnson down the left flank, beat two of his markers on the run before opening himself up to curl home the winner into the bottom corner.
The excitement and celebrations that trailed Okeke's winner among the home fans were in two folds. One was the delight of winning such a difficult game at the death and secondly, the fact that the winner came from a son of the soil, and right in front of the stands where fans from his clan, Obiagu, a crowded low income district in Enugu known to produce football and music stars
"I feel great. I am very happy to score and win the match," Okeke told www.npfl.ng
The FC Inter of Enugu product made his Rangers debut early this month when he came on as a second half substitute in a rescheduled Match Day 18 game against league leaders Plateau United. He barely had a touch of the ball after coming on in stoppage time for Chidera Eze but on Sunday, he had 30 minutes or more to make an impression and he grabbed the opportunity.
"It's a dream come true to play for Rangers. I was happy to make the team against Plateau but I didn't have enough time to show what I can do.
"When I had the chance again on Sunday, I just prayed to God to help me and he answered me," stated the nimble footed lad.
Okeke made his full Rangers debut in Match Day 19 against Gombe United in Gombe and he acknowledges the intensity of the NPFL but thanked his teammates who he said have made it easy for him to adapt to the elite division.
"It's not easy (to play in the NPFL)," he noted. "But my teammates have helped me settle. They have always encouraged me and I truly appreciate them".
Victory over Gombe United lifted Rangers to 14th on the log but just two points clear of the relegation zone after twenty round of matches this season. When asked if he is confident the champions will avoid relegation, he retorted:
"God forbid! We will not relegate."
The consensus among the locals in the Coal City is that a new hero is born. The acceptance they have for this lad from Enugu North Local Government Area is one that can only be accorded to a long sought Messiah. Ebuka Okeke's performance in the remaining 18 league games will go a long way in corroborating their belief or evaporating same.

Is Rohr in charge or not?

We know that the football politicians in sport administration will never go willingly. This has been and remains a huge cash cow for many of the NFF corrupt officials.

This is worrying and not good for our football.

I have been told quite a few stories

Icon4s:


After reading through the first 1 or 2 paragraphs the next thing I started searching for was his age.

I lost interest when I couldn't find his age.

Our journalists can do better.

goldfish80:


The little I know about him is that he was signed during the last local transfer window from the same grassroot team which produced Obinna Nwobodo. Ifeanyi Uba wanted to sign him up but he insisted he's only going to play for Rangers.
I hear Rangers put on hold signing another equally talented prodigy from the same team named Uzoh.
He could be in his early 20's .

Early 20s?

So why were you referring to him as a kid?

Alampasu Pens New Deal, Will Replace Brazilian Goalkeeper At Etebo’s Club CD Feirense




Super Eagles goalkeeper Dele Alampasu has been given a big chance to claim the first choice spot at Portuguese top division side CD Feirense next season.

The goalkeeper who is a part of the senior national team of Nigeria, who are presently in France in preparation for two friendly games against Corsica and Togo respectively, had a fairly successful time on loan to third division side Cesarense.

He is expected to sign a fresh contract with the club with his current deal set to run out this summer, and talks are already at an advanced stage for him to sign the dotted lines upon his return from international duties with Nigeria.

Voted as the best goalkeeper at the 2013 U-17 World Youth Championship, the 20 year old will replace Brazilian goalkeeper Pecanha who is expected to leave the Portuguese side this summer.

Pecanha’s expected departure won’t make Alampasu first choice shot stopper at the club, as he still needs to displace Vana who kept goal for most of CD Feirense’s game this season.

I was just speculating. He could be more or less, I'm not his relative so I can't tell his age with a degree of certainty.

Sir Maidaboi... saw your mention... I trust the first lady is on your matter already... so that's good

Cyber eagles is an interesting forum... I do visit there sometimes... some fine soccer minds come there. It was from that forum I got solid info that Jonathan Ligali is Nigerian...

All these plenty story, what's his age?

EEGA:
Is Alhassan Ibrahim(Muazzam) an attacking midfielder or winger?

Nigerdeltaboi:
where is Bazee sef ? the assist master

goldfish80:

Are you saying nobody have moved on from Sweden at the age of 26? Even at 27 he can still get a decent move. Let's not write him off because he was honest about his age.
I understand your apprehension about his lack of game time but it could be attributed to getting him settled in first. It took Ndidi months before he settled in Belgium. The league in Sweden is just about 2 months old. Whenever he's settled in, he will be unstoppable. He's that talented, ask anyone who followed the npfl last season.
