Quotes edit

  • The dream comes true and I think it’s a new opening for players to know there’s life after football and that you can do other stuffs apart from being an agent. I’d look forward to giving back, but in a different kind of way.
  • I grew up in Nigeria and played from U-12 all the way to professional level and I think I’m in a position to encourage those in the grassroots that they can play football and also be educated at the same time which will help them after the game.
  • I’ve always said it before now that you can have ten defenders but if they’re not trained to defend as a unit you will always concede goals.
