Lille made it clear he is one for the future and another addition to their first team squad alongside Issac Lihadji. So he may get some games with the first team. It depends on the signings Lille make. Time will tell.


Clint02:
Will he be playing for the first team?

There's actually hype around him. Those in the know at the city academy rated him above Sancho

Maybe during the academy

There is no noise about foden like grealish mount and co

Our next U-20s could begin assembling next year from the look of things. But the NFF gotta announce the coaches first of all.

Ugo's name is already out there. I understand the lad has been mentioned to Rohr already and Rohr's reaction was very welcoming. Ugo is already being worked on and you are right... He is keen on Nigeria so that makes it easier for us.

As for Simbakoli, I can also tell you authoritatively that Rohr is in the know about the lad. Already on his case as we speak. What we don't know is if he is keen on us but I'm thinking he won't say no to Nigeria. But he got to show himself at this new level too to justify the attention. Time will tell.





ChrisKels:


When next are we assembling another U20s? This boy and Ugochukwu need to be fast tracked into our youth system asap.

Neither of the two have been capped by France at any level. While Ugo is keen on a chance with Nigeria, I can't say same for Usman though, but there is no how he would opt for CAR ahead of Nigeria

He's been largely on the bench. With goals and assists, he will make backpage like he is currently. England don't hate him because Guardiola is his coach, that's absurd.

Gilmour played beyond his age in that game. Foden was hyped too last season after doing well in a champions league game.
They even claimed he was better than Debryn at the same age. Lack of game time made people forget about him, they are all over him this morning.
I can't relate with your claims of not hyped because Guardiola is the coach. You think they hate Guardiola in England or what?

Bundesliga side, SC Freiburg have promoted three Naija talents in their ranks from the U-19 team to their Second team ahead of the 2020-2021 season.

Noah Atubolu (18) - Goalkeeper.
Kimberly Ezekwem (18) - Defender.
Kevin Schade (18) - Forward.

@scfreiburg U19 ➡ @scfreiburg II (Season 2020-21)


That's my boy there, Atubolu from Akwaeze Anaocha. Quality goalkeeper and captain of Freiburg U19. Though he has been capped by Germany at the youth levels, I was chatting with the elder sis Kathlin not long ago and she had some interesting things to say about Noah and his Nigerianness via Igbo-Amaka.

He doesn’t need to play regular before you hear his name ,at least he is part of mancity team ,was Hudson odoi a regular before the hype ? Yes or no ?

Hudson Odoi hasn’t play 15 career games for Chelsea before the hype sote Bayern Munich almost buy am but las las their eyes clear

Only one match wey Scottish Ben Gilmour play we no hear word ,or you wanna call that one a regular player ?

As far as an English talent is playing under pep they won’t hype him as others

But the fact remains that he always develop the best young talents from Pedro Busquets and co but na only the money side dem wan talk

You just had to link everything to Pep out of sentiments...
Foden isn't hyped by the British media?
I suggest you read the British news more ...

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/53272851

The British media apparently focuses more on active players than bench warmers.. have u seen hypes around CHO this season ?
While Madison,Grealish,Mount and Sancho have been active members of their club this season,Foden just made his 30th appearance in all competitions of the season yesterday..17th in the league

There was hype around CHo when he wasn’t even regular and yet to play 15 career games

I am not calling sancho here ooo ,that one is doing so well in Germany and deserve any hype around him

There was no hype around cho now but there was hype then ,if you can hype an unproven why can’t you hype a foden that always does well with the few minutes he always gets

Omo if you Dey play under pep as British the hype won’t be much ,that’s my point and it’s clear

Sorry, you made no point..

You are just being unnecessarily sentimental..

Foden made his first team debut for city in 2017. Since then,he has been largely a bench warmer. The excuse was that he is still young and still learning..

Like u said,CHO was hyped when he first started playing,but now the hype have died down.. how's Foden own different ?
Why should anybody hype a bench warmer?
If you crammed the internet well,you will see articles praising Foden after his performances in cup games for city....

Meanwhile, Mount, Madison and Grealish that u mentioned have been ever present for their clubs this season..

Linking everything to Guardiola makes no sense.. Guardiola hasn't committed any crime to warrant unnecessary hatred from the British media..He isn't the first top class manager to come and unsettle the balance in the premier league either...

It has taken three seasons and 66 games to score 8 goals in the EPL.

Does that mean we should wait for three seasons more before he reaches that milestone.

Meanwhile it is widely claimed that he is IN- FORM. If that's is IN- FORM what on earth is off form.

I also don't support that in-form assertion about Iheanacho
