Akinsola sets 20-goal target

Former U-17 winger, Kabiru Akinsola has set a 20-goal target for the next round of the season. The Nigerian player showed glimpses of  his best form for his Spanish club with 12 goals to his name and he is determined to scale the heights that made him an instant hit with the Cardiz fans following his arrival in August.

 “I think I am getting to my best and I will get stronger and stronger," Akinsola revealed exclusively. "In particular I think my work on set-pieces especially my attacking ability is better according to my coach, but I am still not flattered but I will be better. 

I’m sure you’ll see an improved Akinsola again.

 “My own target is simple - I would like to score 20 goals in total, yes that is my target and I am extremely working towards on it.”

Orelesi set for Dutch league

Dream Team V left full back Nurudeen Orelesi is on the verge of joining one of the top clubs in Holland if the ongoing negotiation between his club and the wanted clubs materialize.
The former U-20 star revealed  his intention of playing in the Dutch League if his Albanian base club agrees with the clubs coming to sign him for the January transfer window.

It is unlikely that Skenderbue Korce will be able to keep their most committed player for the mid transfer as the player remain of their best in the Albanian league and his move to one of the top club in Holland is inevitable.

In an exclusive chat, the Dream Team V star also disclose his dream of coming to play for the Super Eagles and a move to the Dutch League could give him the opportunity in the Nigeria Senior team.

"There are lots of clubs waiting for me now," Orelesi reveals Exclusively. But the decision is not mine, I have to wait for my club to negotiate for the deal and see if there is anything concrete at the end but there is hope for me.

"They have been eyeing me since 2009 U-20 World  Cup but the offer was not that concrete but it seems they have seen what they want and that is why they are renewing their interest now.

It is understood that Sevilla, Levante and Lille are also part of the clubs that are monitoring the player.
