An alumni of Lagos State University (LASU), Azeez Mustapha will be leading SKF Nigerian Eagles to the Gothia Cup in Sweden as the head coach of the team.
Azeez graduated with BSc in Political Science from LASU and also has a diploma in coaching from the prestigious FCAAN while he oversees Ghetto Tigers FC as head coach winning several laurels across the length and breadth of Lagos state.
He said, he’s delighted with Ghetto Tigers FC players participating in the Gothia Cup and the players are ready to give their best considering how huge the platform is to their growth and career.
“It’s a big platform for Ghetto Tigers Football Club based in Lagos. We are so happy getting on this project and getting our players to play in an international competition.
“It’s something that makes me very emotional because this is why we train, this is why we play. I can tell you the players are happy, motivated and want to give their best when called on.
“The five players that got the platform are not taking it for granted, they appreciate the chairman and vice chairman of Odi-olowo Ojuwoye LCDA and appreciate the country manager of SKF.
“They know it’s a once in a lifetime platform, it’s a platform that if you did not utilize it well, they might not come back again. It’s very good for the players and the team and I’m proud as someone associated with Ghetto Tigers FC.”
The Nigeria Eagles team to the Gothia Cup is sponsored by SKF Nigeria and facilitated by the chairman of Odi-olowo Ojuwoye LCDA, Mr Rasaq Ajala.
