Amuneke Supports Osimhen’s Potential Move to PSG
Emmanuel Amuneke, the former Super Eagles winger who played a pivotal role in Victor Osimhen’s early international career, has expressed strong support for Osimhen’s potential transfer to Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).
The Ligue 1 champions are currently negotiating a deal to bring the Nigerian forward on board this summer, with Osimhen’s contract including a release clause valued at €130 million.
Amuneke, who first introduced Osimhen to the international stage during the U-17 World Cup, believes that a move to PSG would significantly benefit the forward’s career.
He highlighted PSG’s stature as a major club competing in the UEFA Champions League, noting that such a transition would be a positive step for Osimhen’s professional growth.
Amuneke emphasized that this move represents an opportunity for Osimhen to further advance his career after making substantial contributions at Napoli.
He expressed confidence that Osimhen, being a prominent talent, is well aware of his career goals and the importance of playing at a top-level club like PSG.
Nigeria’s Flying Eagles secured a 1-0 victory over Water FC of Abuja in their first training match on Wednesday. The lone goal was scored by Bayelsa United’s Rabiu Abdullahi, giving Aliyu Zubairu’s team the win.
The Flying Eagles are gearing up for the WAFU B U-20 Championship in Togo, which will determine the representative for the 2025 Africa U-20 Cup of Nations. The team began their preparations last week in Abuja, following Zubairu’s appointment as head coach in August.
Manchester United legend Dwight Yorke has criticized manager Erik ten Hag and the team’s style of play, expressing doubt about their chances of winning the Premier League under his leadership.
Speaking to beIN Sports, Yorke said, “We’re far from winning the Premier League. After Ten Hag’s first season, we believed he could lead us forward, but that hasn’t happened. Yes, we won the FA Cup last season, but that doesn’t make us a strong team. The way we play, our league position, and our goal stats are the worst in the club’s Premier League history since 1992.”
Enyimba’s head coach, Olanrewaju Yemi, is focused on securing a win against Etoile Filante of Burkina Faso in their CAF Confederation Cup clash. The second leg of the preliminary round will take place on Sunday at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo.
After a goalless draw in the first leg, Yemi emphasized the importance of the upcoming match, stating, “The job is far from over. We must stay focused and prepare rigorously for the return leg.” He praised his team’s tactical discipline, which effectively neutralized Etoile Filante’s attacking threats, and expressed confidence in their ability to build on their solid performance.
