Godfrey Oboabona Unhappy With Arsenal's Transfer Market Policy
Published: July 28, 2013
Nigeria international stopper Godfrey Oboabona is unhappy with Arsenal's transfer market policy.
Indeed, the 22 - year - old Sunshine Stars skipper was courted by the Gunners after putting himself in the shop window thanks to his excellent performance at the African Cup of Nations.
But the Arsenal brass insisted that he must attend trials before being offered a contract.
'' It is high time some of these clubs start respecting this country. Nigeria is a very big football playing country.
'' I wonder why Barcelona should sign Neymar for £50 million from a Brazilian club even before Brazil won the Confederations Cup, only for Arsenal management to tell me, who participated in the team that won the Africa Cup of Nations to come for trial.
'' I think I should be above such request,'' Oboabona told the online edition of Soccer Star.
Putting aside the interest of Arsenal, allnigeriasoccer.com understands that clubs in Ukraine, France and Spain are monitoring the situation of Godfrey Oboabona , who is rated around 650, 000 euros.
