On Ighalo's extended loan deal: Another angle According to Sky sports, when Odion Ighalo's loan time at Man Utd is over by January 2021 and he returns to Shanghai Shenhua, he will be expected to sign a new contract until the end of 2024 worth £400,000 a week. So this means, Iggy only delayed his biggest pay day by couple of months. He wants to finish living this Man utd dream before heading back to his parent club in China for the fattest pay day no other African footballer have witnessed in history. Life is good. ![]() But Fabrizio Romano adds another twist though... He says: "Manchester United will also have a buy option to sign Ighalo on a permanent deal on January 2021, at the end of the loan." 3 Likes |

Liverpool-owned midfielder Ovie Ejaria is in line to receive his first-ever call-up to the Super Eagles, provided a one-time change of association from England to Nigeria is approved by FIFA before the next international window, Nigeria manager Gernot Rohr has hinted. The London-born Ejaria trained with the Golden Eaglets class of 2013 that contained the likes of Taiwo Awoniyi, Kelechi Iheanacho and goalkeeper Francis Uzoho, but was omitted from the World Cup roster because coach Manu Garba had doubts about his physicality. Four years later in South Korea, the Reading star was a member of the Young Lions squad that won the FIFA U20 World Cup and debuted for England U21s the following year in a friendly against Romania. Asked to provide an update on Ovie Ejaria, Rohr told Channels Television : "This player is one of the players we are looking for, we are in touch with him. "These players who have played already for the youth teams of other countries, there is a process to do. They have to write a letter to FIFA, they have to follow some rules to change. "Ejaria is one of the players, we like him, and we could invite him. We have other ones, you know the names, I won't give you all the names. "Players like him could have the chance and I hope we have some friendlies, you see the calendar now, it is very difficult to have friendlies because we have to do the qualifiers for the AFCON and World Cup, it will be difficult now to start the qualifiers in November. "We need friendlies to test these players, and it will be good to do it in September." This season, former Arsenal youth-teamer Ejaria has played 35 games for Reading, scoring three goals and has four assists to his name. |

andrewbaba44: It seems you have read my post but you have been unable to comprehend the substance. The bold is correct but in the context of the club it's irrelevant. We are talking about Chelsea in this regard what the coaches think and believe of thier existing players on loan and or academy boys yet be given a good run of games. IS OF PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE. There are players in Real Madrid, Barcelona, Chelsea, etc who are excellent but with world class players limiting thier opportunities. These players leave the academy and walk into the first teams of many clubs. You may call them unproven buy they are not unproven to the people that matter who make decisions , the Chelsea coaching staff. Tega, Aina, Tomori, were all unproven academy boys look at them. But were always highly rated in the club. James Preece the unproven unrated academy boy has effectively retired Cesar Azpilicueta all in his first season in the EPL I wish I could take you to the Chelsea youth teams that's U23 and U18. I can assure you will absolutely change your words. Look at that small boy Gilmore bossing midfield in Chelsea and you think he is the only one. Do you remember when Omeruo was without club and he came back to Chelsea. He was training with the U18 not U23. That should tell you something. Now if Chuks were to go to Chelsea ( I very much doubt it) and he doesn't get games. All of you in your sentiment based bias will say discrimination and favouritism. As it stands Chuks lacks team discipline, doesn't back track, limited vision, end product is not fantastic and he hugs the ball too long with unnecessary dribbling. With that kind of behaviour do you really think he will survive in a highly focused and disciplined Chelsea team. Now not you but many delusional will say oh he hates Nigerian origin players. And l am not being objective but prejudiced. |

Kog45: Egbon, you too have seen a lot in terms of youth football to easily want to come to this conclusion. You have seen the various era of our quality Nigerian Youth players(U20s & U17s): 1983-1989 1993-1999 2000s 2013-2019. You know how most of the graduates of the various teams have ended. I have seen very obvious talents turn out average our go into oblivion. This particular statement I made a couple of years back, earlier when we first created this thread, turned me against many peeps here. As highly talented as Manu's 2013 U17 were how many are in the Super Eagles today. Same for Amuneke's 2015 crop. Youth football is what it is "Youth Football". A graduate of a Youth Team needs to work extremely hard, even with the immense talent, and also pray for Favor to be able to break into limelight as a senior team player. Chidi Nwakali's case is just one of many. Some U17 graduates don't even end up playing Professional football. 1 Like |
