The reason behind the decision of Spanish second division side Ponferradina to sign Kelechi Nwakali has been revealed by coach of the team Jose Gomes.

Nwakali was signed on a free transfer following the termination of his contract by fellow Spanish second division side Huesca. His contract was terminated after a disagreement caused by his late arrival to Spain after representing Nigeria at the Africa Cup of Nations in January.

Huesca insist his excuse of not returning early wasn’t due to the illnes that he claimed and went ahead to terminate his deal. He contested it at the Spanish FA and a ruling is yet to be delivered.

Ponferradina announced his signing on a two year deal and as expected questions were asked about the rationale behind handing the 24 year old a deal at the club going by his not too impressive performance at Huesca.

Gomes explained he has tracked the player for a while and he even scored against his team while he was at Almeria. He also spoke about his playing style as another quality which endeared him to the Nigeria international.

“I knew him, he scored a goal against me when I was at Almería. In the U17 World Cup he was the best player in the tournament, and it was no coincidence. He is very intelligent, he knows how to take up space, he filters very good passes, he dribbles well and pull out”, the coach explained in an interview sourced by OwnGoalNigeria.com editorial team.

Plateau United striker Jesse Akila appears to have placed himself on the radar of coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Jose Peseiro, OwnGoalNigeria.comcan exclusively reveal.

Peseiro watched the GBS Academy product in a Nigeria Professional Football League game last season in Uyo, where he starred for Plateau United against Akwa United. The 20 year old might be in line for a call up to the senior national team of Nigeria.

He impressed Peseiro with his hold up play, ability to bring other players into the game and also his strength and pace. Something that is a requirement for modern days strikers hoping to cut it big at a higher level.

Akila started his career with a short stint in Minna with the feeders team of Niger before moving on to the U17 team of MFM FC. After an impressive start the attacker subsequently became one of the youngest players to graduate into the MFM first team where he made some cameo apperances.

In 2018 after a discussion with a fatherly figure in coach Ahmed Ibrahim popularly called coach Bros he returned to the youth team of Plateau United . He stated that his target was to prove himself and break into the first team of the Jos club and to subsequently help the teams in its quest to become league champions.

Akila nailed a spot in the Plateau United first team and was pivotal in helping them mount a serious title chase that ended with them finishing second. He is fully at home at Plateau United and as expected living up to his potentials.

As activities in the transfer window continue to gather pace, a lot of movement is expected in the coming days especially from players who are keen on moving to clubs where their career will receive a positive boost.

Nosa Obarentin falls in the category as he has decided to further his career by ditching the B team of reigning Italian Serie A champions AC Milan for Napoli as first reported by a Twitter handle with the name @Giovanilinapoli.

The report was circulated by another Twitter handle in @Napoli_reports and the 19 year old center back, who can also play as a left back confirmed his departure from Milan with a post on his Instagram story posing in the shirt of Napoli. He has been with AC Milan since 2018.

He rose from the youth ranks of AC Milan stepping up from the U14 to the U19 after joining them from AC Cesena youth team. He now fancies the next step of his career at Napoli, where he will start with the Primavera team with his sights fixed on breaking into the main team.

Napoli currently have another Nigerian in Victor Osimhen on their books. Obarentin who is a left footed central defender is seen as a future prospect who could be the long term replacement of departed Senegalese defender Kalidou Koulibaly who is now at Chelsea. They are both left footed.

Following his record breaking move from Rangers of Scotland to Dutch giants Ajax Amsterdam, Calvin Bassey immediately joined his new teammates in training.

However the Nigeria international is yet to get a game in pre season despite the fact that he was primarily signed to fill the void created by the departure of a first team player in Lisandro Martinez.

Bassey was once again missing from the list of players called up for yesterday’s 3-1 win over Ukraine side Shakhtar Donetsk, and this time around technical manager of the team Gerry Hamstra was pushed to provide an explanation.

“Calvin Bassey is fit, but not yet eligible to play. That’s what Ajax technical manager Gerry Hamstra said just before the game with Shakhtar Donetsk.

“Bassey’s work permit has to be arranged and so the defender can’t play for Ajax yet.

Hamstra  also quelled fears in certain quarters who suggested that the club is probably not impressed by the Nigerian after seeing him closely during training the last few days.

“He didn’t play in the biggest competition, but he has been in the Europa League final. From his build-up via Leicester City to Rangers, he has made rapid development and we think he can develop even further. He is available immediately, but there are more. The selection is wide, so he will also have to fight, but this is someone who brings our specific qualities,” says Hamstra to Ziggo Sport.

Sweden top division side IFK Göteborg have completed the signing of Nigerian striker Saidu Salisu from famous Nigeria football academy GBS of Jos, OwnGoalNigeria.com can exclusively reveal.

We exclusively gathered that the deal is for an initial loan period before a decision will be made on signing him permanently if he impresses at the end of this season. All papers for the deal have been signed by all involved in the transfer.

He was scouted at a recent trip by scout of the team after impressing with his powerful left foot and also impressive ability on the ball. He is also very strong and also quick.

The 20 year old forward was a part of the Nigeria U20 team of 2020 under coach Ladan Bosso but missed out on the final selection of players for the WAFU Championship after picking up a toe injury.

In his absence, the team failed to seal a spot in the U20 Africa Cup of Nations as they crash out in the group stage. Saidu has since then played for two Nigerian teams in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL).

Last season he was at Kano Pillars after having a short stint with former NPFL champions Akwa United, all on a special loan agreement with GBS Academy owned by famous Nigeria academy coach Ahmed Ibrahim popularly called coach Bros.

German giants Bayern Munich have completed the signing of 2019 U-17 midfielder Daniel Francis on a three year contract, OwngoalNigeria.com reports.

The 18 year old has been with their world team for the last two years and has now made the step to the Bayern Munich main set up becoming the first Nigerian to sign for the German giants.

Francis as first reported by this portal alongside two others in fellow Nigerian Treasure Odunze and Muslim Umar from the world squad have been training with
Austrian side Klagenfurt. He will now spend next season on loan at the club.

Per a source close to the player, the defensive midfielder will by next season join the main team in pre season as the loan is to help him ease him into professional football. He is joining from Abuja Academy FC Hearts.

” I want you to know that Dada ( Francis’s moniker) has signed a three years deal with the main Bayern Munich team. You guys have been reporting about him hence I thought it wise to let you know”, a source close to the players said in a message to OwnGoalNigeria.com.

Nigeria international forward Cyriel Dessers has touched down Italy where he is expected to seal a move to newly promoted Italian Serie A side Cremonese.

Dessers has decided to pitch his tent with the Serie A side in a deal which will see them pay around €4m for him. He is expected to sign a three year contract with the option of another year per what we exclusively gathered.

A picture of the 27 year old was sent to us by a contact who shares a close relationship with the agent of the Nigeria international forward. Dessers was the top scorer last season in the inaugural edition of the Europa Conference League last season.

He achieved the feat while on loan at Dutch side Feyenoord by scoring ten goals but the club opted against the option of signing him permanently. He returned to Genk where he scored in their first game of the season last weekend as they fall to a 2-3 loss to Club Brugge.

The goal will be his last in their colours as he is already in Italy for a routine medical before an official announcement. Below is the picture of Dessers in Italy as exclusively sent to us.

Newly promoted Italian Serie A side Cremonese will likely beef up their attack with two players of the senior national team of Nigeria per several reports.

Newly promoted Cremonese are strengthening their squad ahead of the start of the season, where their aim is to at least maintain their status in the Italian top flight and bolstering their attack is a priority.

To that extent talks have been held with the senior national team of Nigeria duo of Cyriel Dessers and David Okereke players of Genk and Club Brugge of Belgium respectively.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Dessers and his agent were in Italy to hold talks with the Serie A over the move. He is keen on leaving the Belgium side after a successful loan spell with Feyenoord in the Netherlands, where he scored ten goals to finish as top scorer in the Europa Conference League.

Although there is a slim chance of the 27 year old staying at Gent. He made the most of his remaining time there with a goal in their first game of the season over the weekend in a 2-3 loss to Brugge. Okereke on the other hand was an unused substitute.

Last season he had a productive spell at relegated Italian Serie A side Venezia and it appears he did enough to convince Cremonese that he will be a positive addition to their attack line. He scored seven goals in 33 games last season.

Both players are said to be close to signing for the club. A good performance in the league will no doubt help their national team careers particularly Okereke who hasn’t been involved since 2019, when he was drafted from the U23 to the main team for a friendly game.
