Football glorious have deluded the country for a while, now a situation that has left a lot of football lovers in a desperate state.
With National U20 preparation to go, all out and conquer, all attention has moved to the Ladan Bosso led U20 to bring some sort of succour and renewed hope for the country.
For a setup that boost some of the best talent at that age grade, many are looking up to the lives of Mohammed Ibrahim Beji, formerly of Tempo Football Academy and Daga Daniel of Dakkada FC to re-invent the powers that helped the U20 to WAFU victory in 2022.
On another positive, a lot of responsibilities rest on the shoulder of the foreign based players in the fold, Michael Ologo and Abel Ogwuche (also a former cadet of Tempo Football Academy) currently playing for Istanbulspor and Trellesborg respectively.
The squad is currently in Casablanca, Morocco where they are putting final touch to preparation before travelling to Cairo.
