Winner of the 2020 Marc-Vivien Foe Prize, Victor Osimhen is overwhelmed with congratulations. Sunday Oliseh, former international and Nigeria coach goes further.
“Since Rashidi Yekini left the selection, we have not had a player of the caliber of Victor Osimhen“, Says Oliseh in an interview with RFI. The former Ajax Amsterdam player said he followed the player when he was stationed with the Super eagles.
“When I was coach, I was trying to assemble a new team. Victor Osimhen was playing at the U17 World Cup at the time. I had watched the meetings with my assistants, including the final won by Nigeria. He did it with such ease, the way he eliminated his opponents“, He adds.
Osimhen beat Islam Slimani and Yunus Abdelhamid to get the Marc-Vivien Foe award.
