I am just imagining a future Super Eagles front line of Onyekuru,Osimhen and Chukwueze, it looks mouthwatering on paper
Looks very mobile. Wish we have as much ball playing midfielders to serve the balls to them.

Who is Seyi Ojo? Who is Harry Wilson? Who is Ryan Kent? What clubs have they played against? How did they stand out against them?

Once you hear a Nigerian player's name, you will want to compare him with every flash in the pan player born in Britain.

Sheyi Ojo broke into Liverpool's team at 18 years old during the summer of 15/16 season and he was impressive in those matches he played.

2 goals and 5 assists in 13 matches (all competitions) is not bad for a 18 years old player.

Ryan Kent is very promising.

Neither of them is a Chukwueze though. The comparison was uncalled for

Iheanacho will never boss the Belgian league. He lacks qualities you will see in those that did. Look at Samatta, Mbokani, Osimhen & even Ezekiel. He needs to finetune his first touch issue/ball control, dribbling ability, the need to use his right foot passively & he equally needs tough shoulder to wear down defenders.


Oga don't put words in my mouth... my post never said Iheanacho would boss the Belgian league.. I want him to move there and revive his career

In case you haven't noticed, Samu Chukwueze is one of the biggest prospects in La liga. There is reported interest from the likes of Barca, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.

It is ridiculous for you to compare him to the likes of Harry Wilson, Sheyi Ojo and Ryan Kent..Who are those?

Even your initial statement does not stand up to scrutiny, How many players in Liverpool were world class when they were purchased??

Was Wijnaldum world class when he was purchased?
Was Mane world class when he was purchased??
Was Trent Alexander world class when he won a shirt?
Was Firmino world class when he was bought??

Chukwueze at this moment is considered a great prospect, potentially world class with the right guidance, that is why these big teams are chasing him.



Wijnaldum, Mane and Firmino already made names for themselves with individual laurels before coming to Liverpool. Don't compare.

I knew Wijnaldum when he turned heads in the Dutch league. Due to this he was made Captain of PSV at a very young age and even won Dutch footballer of the year.

Even Mane was the best player in the Austrian league before he came to EPL to continue his performance.

Sheyi Ojo isn't 18 my friend..He is 21 .. And he had 0 goal and 1 assist in 17 appearance for Stade Reims this season..

Torino have decided to make use of the purchase option inserted into Ola Aina's contract when he joined the Turin based club on a season-long loan from Chelsea, according to president Urbano Cairo.

The Maroons supremo revealed that Ola Aina's permanent switch could be finalized on Monday, May 27, provided that Chelsea are ready to accept their offer for the wing back.

FIFA have banned Chelsea from signing players for two transfer windows after they were found guilty of breaching the rules in connection with minors and it is being speculated that The Blues do not want to sell the Nigeria international again as a result of the ban.

''Ola Aina? He did well, tomorrow I will send the letter to Chelsea to communicate that we will exercise the right to purchase, '' Cairo told Sky Sport Italia.

Aina did enough to earn a permanent move to Torino, playing 30 games (22 as a starter) in the Serie A and scoring one goal while providing three assists.

The 22-year-old signed for Chelsea as an U11 and has played six games for their first team.

None of these players were world class at the time of their purchase. Mane was in Southampton before Liverpool. Wijnaldum was in Newcastle.

Proven world class players?

If that is so, then Chukwueze is equally a proven world class player by such standards. Since, all you have to do is stand out in an average club to be a proven world ckass player, then by all means, Chukwueze has achieved this.

Chukwueze has not achieved quarter of what these have achieved.

but with the right philosophy, guidance and hard work...they've made it to the top.
a young player..recognized to be among the top 20 best young players in europe too 5 leagues...and here someone is trying to downplay his potentials and recognition just to promote a mediocre player like seyi ojo

The Liverpool which Wijnaldum and Mane joined is a different beast to this current Liverpool. These days Liverpool are competing to win the league and champions league not trying to make the top 4.
They go for established players such as VVD, Fabinho not the Shane Murrays and Scott Dans, since 90 points don't guarantee you the Premiership any longer.

Top teams buy 2 kinds of players. Established stars and top prospects.. Samu falls into the later category.
