0

The future of Nigeria international winger Moses Simon at Ligue 1 side Nantes is still unclear with the forward having just two more years to run on his deal.

After another fantastic season in Ligue 1, a host of clubs notably from the English Premier League made attempts to lure the Nigerian away from Nantes, but the 27 year old is keen on remaining in France due to family reasons.

Ligue 1 side Nice as well as Marseille have all indicated interest in acquiring the services of the winger with the former even failing with a bid of €10m three weeks ago. Nantes want at least €15m as his transfer fee.

Simon’s future will become clear after this weekend’s French Super Cup game against PSG which will take place in Tel Aviv. Simon and the rest of his Nantes teammates will arrive Israel later today.

We exclusively gathered that a meeting will be held immediately after the game between his representatives and the club in order to reach a compromise on his future. Simon is keen on staying in France but not necessarily at Nantes.

0

With rumours circulating about the future of Nigeria international forward Sadiq Umar at newly promoted La Liga side Almeria, coach of the team Joan Francesc Ferrer Sicilia popularly called Rubi has given his opinion on the forward.

Sadiq has finished as top scorer for the team in back to back seasons and last season his 18 goals fired them to promotion to the top league. Rubi is sure he will make same impact in the Spanish top division.

He said his dream is to persuade the player to shun overtures from teams like Villarreal, Getafe and Atalanta, although he admitted that yet leave the club due to issues bothering on the club needing money that will be generated from his sale.

“Our dream as a staff would be for Sadiq to continue with the team in the First Division because I think his performance could be better than in the Second Division, simply because of a space issue, with the possibility of running, he will do a lot of damage,” Rubi said as quoted by Diario de Almeria.

“I think he will be there and if in the end he is not, it is because the club understands that the economic part is good enough to allocate that money to bring a footballer in that position and one or another situation, or help leave a fantastic field.”

Sources close to Sadiq told OwnGoalNigeria.com that he will make a decision on his future in the next two weeks just before the start of the new season in Spain.

Head coach of Napoli Luciano Spalleti has voiced out his unhappiness over the attitude of Nigeria international forward Victor Osimhen in his side’s 2-2 draw against Adana Demirspor in a pre season game.

Osimhen played the first half in yesterday’s game, which is coming three days after the forward was sent out of training by the coach following a heated disagreement with his teammate Zambo Anguissa.

After the game, Spalleti was asked about the Nigerian who was guilty of missing two good chances to put them clear against the Turkish side. He called on the forward to raise up to his status as one of the leaders of the team by showing a good attitude.

Last season the forward scored 14 Serie A goals and 4 in Europa League despite missing around three months of the season. The coach was however unimpressed with his commitment during yesterday’s game.

“For us he has to become a leader, he cannot go over in situations like this because training is a simulation of the match. If he then reacts like this in training, imagine in a match”, the coach laments.

Signed from Derby County on a free after the expiration of his deal, he trained with the Nigeria U17 team of 2019 but wasn’t included in the final list of players for the tournament.

His rise since then has been phenomenal as he went from failing trials at West Ham after he was released by Arsenal to joining Rangers, where he wasn’t offered an extension after a year. He was signed by cash strapped Derby County and there he seized the chance to make an impression and earned the move to Crystal Palace.

Real Reason Why We Signed Kelechi Nwakali – Coach Of Ponferradina Explains

0

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.

” There is an offer on the table for him to sign his first professional deal at the club. It includes improved salary, bonuses and now the captain armband. We are still talking about it”, he concluded.

0

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.
