Highly rated Nigerian starlet Henty Isoken Ezekiel in an interview with the official website of Spezia has said that he idolizes the most iconic footballer to come from Liberia and former World Footballer of the Year , George Weah.

About two weeks ago, the Little Eagles announced the arrival of Ezekiel on loan for the remainder of the season.

The 20 - year - old striker told  acspezia.com: '' When I arrived at Milan I was really happy, my idol has always been George Weah, Marco Sansovini here's an example, a leader that is felt when needed and shows the example on the field.

'' Last year we ran hard the first week, that's it. We're learning to deal with these workloads, we are motivated and we want to make the most of this opportunity.''

Henty Ezekiel , a product of Flying Sport Academy, Lagos, netted 9 goals in 14 appearances for the Primavera squad of AC Milan last season.
