Kano
Pillars FC have described the ongoing Gold Cup pre-season tournament as an
avenue to test the quality of its new players ahead of 2016/2017 Nigeria
Professional Football League (NPFL) season. The
club’s media Officer, Idris Malikawa said the quality of matches they are
playing in the tournament have given them the opportunity to know the strength of
the team and how to blend their players ahead of the new season.
The
new players that are in Ijebu-Ode with Sai Masu Gida, according to Malikawa, includes
former Enyimba of Aba captain, Chinedu Udoji, Sikiru Kamal, Aliyu Abdulrazak,
Jiya Muhammad, Victor Dennis, Kabiru Balogun, Ibrahim Alassan and Fahad Usman who
are from Enyimba, Lobi Stars, Ikorodu and Sardauna Babes football clubs respectively.
He
said the club is currently in negotiation with the players and their former
clubs to get their clearance to play for the club in the forthcoming season.
“Despite
the fact that new players currently in our camp are quality players but the
tournament would give them more challenges in order to be well prepared for the
forthcoming season,” Malikawa said.
