Sodiq Tunde: Top NPFL clubs monitoring progress of Ekiti United red-hot striker

 


Prolific goal scorer Sodiq Tunde "Obege" is on the radar of a few Nigerian Premier Football League, NPFL clubs, after he caught the attention of their scouts in a recent NNL match.


The new kid on the block hit the ground running after he fired three goals past FC Ebedei on Matchday 3 of the Nigeria National League  (NNL).


With Ekiti United failing to spark on Matchday One against Madiba FC of Lagos, the pressure was on the team to score its first goal and record its first points of the season, having drawn bye on Matchday 2.


"Obege" who completed his signing to Ekiti United from Timi Giants didn't disappoint the home fans as he opened his season goal account with a hat-trick.


His representative who does not want his name disclosed hinted that more is yet to come from "Obege".



"It is too early to talk about Obege, as his representative, that task is for him to have more playing times so that he can develop his game optimally.


"He is a potent striker no doubt but still has a lot to learn, as he is young, energetic, and has a bright future ahead of him.


"He has started the campaign with a hat trick, so we hope to see more goals from him as he takes the matches as they come."


The goal-scoring skills of the Ede-born and former defunct Gray's Int'l FC striker caught the attention of Ekiti United, who offered the clinical goal hunter a two-year deal after he bagged  9 goals for the team in the Nationwide League One last season.
