Ashleigh Plumptre Reunites with Her Dad and Jay Jay Okocha in Lagos
Super Falcons star defender Ashleigh Plumptre had an unforgettable moment in Lagos recently as she reconnected with two very important people, her father and Nigerian football icon Jay Jay Okocha.
The meetup occurred during her visit to Nigeria. When Ashleigh walked into the room and saw her dad, her face immediately lit up. They shared a warm, emotional hug.
Many fans may not know this, but Ashleigh didn’t just wake up and choose Nigeria. It was something deeply personal. Her dad played a big part in helping her understand her Nigerian roots and encouraged her to embrace that side of herself.
Additionally, Jay Jay Okocha, one of the most respected names in African football stepped in, and Ashleigh greeted him with excitement and humility. They shook hands, exchanged smiles, and had a brief chat. Jay Jay praised her growth, commitment, and the pride she brings to the Super Falcons.
“Seeing my dad in Lagos again meant everything to me. We’ve shared this journey together, and moments like this make it all feel real. And to meet someone like Jay Jay Okocha, it’s just surreal. He’s a legend, and I’m honoured.”
Former English footballer, Jamie Redknapp, makes bold suggestion regarding Mohamed Salah to leave the club, Liverpool.
The suggestion came after Liverpool manager Arne Slot criticized the player — a move Redknapp called out following Salah’s benching in the last match.
The former player shared “I don’t necessarily think in January. I just think we have got to let this settle. But I don’t foresee that he will see out the two years of his contract. I think it might be more in the summer.”
Arsenal football manager Mikel Arteta speaks on the team’s defeat against Aston Villa, 2–1, in their match on Saturday.
It can be recalled that Aston Villa scored a goal in the first half, but Arsenal scored back in the second half. After equalizing, Aston Villa scored another goal.
“In the first half we had moments, obviously had the best chance after a foul on Riccy [Calafiori] that Watkins goes through,” Arteta said.
“In the second half we started really well. Scored a goal and we were really dominant.”
Former Liverpool player, Jamie Carragher, speaks on Arsenal’s next match and claims that their game against Aston Villa will be challenging and described it as a test for the team to see how well they perform.
“Arsenal have looked the best team in the league by a long way so far this season, but Man City are still only five points behind.
There’s a long way to go and Arsenal will need to keep their heads! It could be tested tomorrow against Aston Villa!!”
