Super Eagles striker Terem Moffi joins FC Porto on loan

Super Eagles striker Terem Moffi has joined Portuguese giants FC Porto on loan from French club Nice, with an option to make the deal permanent for €8 million at the end of the season.​ The 26 year old completed the move on Friday after both clubs reached agreement earlier in the week, bringing an end to a turbulent spell in France. Moffi has been on medical leave since November 30 following ugly scenes in which Nice players were confronted by angry supporters after a defeat away to his former club Lorient.​ In the aftermath of the incident, he was frozen out of the first team picture and eventually had to approach a French judicial commission to compel Nice to sanction his departure.​ Porto reportedly beat competition from several clubs, including Turkish side Besiktas, which tabled a more lucrative salary package, […]

Osimhen outburst mars Nigeria’s AFCON win

Victor Osimhen’s emotional outburst overshadowed an otherwise emphatic night for Nigeria as the Super Eagles defeated Mozambique 4-0 to secure a place in the Africa Cup of Nations quarterfinals on Monday. The Round of 16 encounter, played at the Complexe Sportif de Fès, was largely one-sided, with Nigeria dominant from the opening exchanges. However, the spotlight shifted in the second half when Osimhen became involved in a heated exchange with teammate Ademola Lookman. The incident occurred in the 63rd minute with Nigeria already leading 3-0 and Osimhen on a hat-trick. Frustrated after not receiving a pass, the Galatasaray striker openly confronted Lookman and left-back Bruno Onyemaechi. The argument escalated quickly, prompting captain Wilfred Ndidi to step in, while Mozambique defender Reinildo Mandava and Nigeria’s Calvin Bassey also intervened to calm the situation. Moments later, Osimhen asked to be substituted and […]
