Kano Pillars technical adviser Ibrahim Musa has revealed to Sportinglens.blogspot.com that his team is still in need of a defensive midfielder and a central attacker before the commencement of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) new season.

Musa said the team has signed six new players and promoted two players from the junior team but he is not yet satisfied with what is on ground.

The technical adviser said the team is taking shape with their pre-season campaign, stressing that old and new players are getting use to themselves with the tournament in Ilorin.

“The team is taking shape and we are doing fine according to laid down plans. Some of the new signing joined the team here in Ilorin and we are using the tournament to access them. When we go back to Kano both old and new players will get use to our tactical play better.

“We are going to register thirty players for the coming season. We have six new players and two from the junior team but I will appeal to the management to sign one new defensive midfielder and a central attacker for the team. Honestly, we have to get things right before the commencement of the season because we want to compete favourably this season. We thank the government and management for what they are doing to the team but like Oliver Twist we are still in need of a midfielder and a striker,” Musa said to Sportinglens.blogspot.com.
