In a touching message shared on his X handle, Okafor reflected on his time with the Naze Millionaires and expressed his gratitude for the support he received during his two-year tenure.
Okafor wrote, “As with all chapters in life, there comes a time to say goodbye. Today, I am closing the chapter with Heartland FC, a club that has been an integral part of my journey. I want to extend my sincere thanks to everyone who supported and believed in me from the moment I joined the club.”
He continued, “Over the past two years, Heartland FC has been more than just a team; it has been a place of significant personal and professional growth.
The experiences, both challenging and rewarding, and the wonderful people I met will always hold a special place in my heart. I will carry forward the lessons learned and the cherished memories made with me as I embark on this new chapter with Rangers.”
During his time with Heartland, Okafor made a notable impact by scoring seven goals in the previous NPFL season.
Coventry City manager, Frank Lampard, speaks on team player and states how the player’s stance will help the team get into the Premier League.
The player is revealed to be Onyeka who he spoke about in the recent interview.
“He brings a different quality and probably a different profile to the midfield players we have.
“As I say, the profile is slightly different and I think that helps us in terms of the options and the competition in the middle of the park for us.”
Arsenal coach, Mikel Arteta, after their last match, shares an update on the injured team members after their last match.
He shared an update on Saka and stated that he is doing better after going through a hip injury. “His hip is improving a lot. Hopefully, he’ll be ready soon.”
He added about the other team members: “Martin is getting better and will be back in a few days, and Jurrien is fit for the weekend.”
Super Eagles footballer, Alex Iwobi, speaks on the World Cup and reveals their hope to play in the 2026 World Cup.
He shared that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is hopeful about hearing from them after they submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
“I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.
“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
