Members of Nigeria’s U20 team team that played at the
recent African Youth Championship have been caught in a
transfer web as some elite European clubs have made
targets of a swoop for their services, according to report
compiled by SL10.
Taiwo Awoniyi, Idowu Akinjide, Bernard Bulbwa,
Abdulganiyu Saheed, Zaharadeen Bello, Musa
Muahmmed, Mustapha Abdullahi, Obinna Nwobodo,
Christian Pyagbara and Ifeanyi Matthew.
Muhammed, who won the Golden Boot as the
tournament’s top scorer, has seen his stock rise over the
past few days and top clubs in Spain and France are
eyeing his services.
According to inside sources, talks have commenced for
the possible transfer of the defender after the World Youth
Championship in New Zealand.
Awoniyi, the player with immense power in the penalty
box, has since attracted interest from some top clubs like
Manchester United, Anderlecht, Bordeaux, Porto, Everton
and Red Bull Salzburg.
Saheed has attracted the attention of two clubs who have
grown fond of his defensive duties despite playing one
game at the tournament, with Zaharadeen on the radar of
Marseille.
Tunisian giants, Club Africain have registered their
interest in fair skinned striker Christian Pyagbara.
Nonetheless, there are also rival interests from some
Portuguese clubs for the forward.
Nimble-footed Bulbwa, who netted the best goal of the
tournament, is said to have also attracted interests from
Standard Liege and Rosenborg.
