Maikaba worried about strikers’ scoring ability

By Taofeek Babalola

Akwa United technical adviser, Abdul Maikaba is concerned about his strikers' scoring ability ahead of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) season, Sportinglens.blogspot.com reports. 


The strikers struggled to find the back of the net during their pre-season preparation, the development which is not going down well with their coach.

The former Wikki Tourists managers told Sportinglens.blogspot.com that he has no intention of bringing in a new striker before the league kicks off on January 14 but he will work on their scoring skill before their league opener against Enugu Rangers Int’l.

“The team will resume on January 3 and we will move straight to closed camping to get ourselves well prepared before the commencement of the league. We don’t have more problems in the team at the moment but my only worry is our strikers. They have not been impressive in their scoring abilities,” Maikaba said to Sportinglens.blogspot.com


He added: “Our pre-season participation in Kano helped us to notice these shortcomings and we will try and correct it before our first league game. We played matches during pre-season completions but we scored limited goals which are not too good for us. There is no plan to bring in new striker. What I noticed is that some of them have not used to our style of play but I believe with the remaining days we will correct this and we will have good outing in the league and the continent.”
