Also the counsel to the late Super Eagle all time highest goal scorer, Rashidi Yekini, Barr. Jubril Mohammed who is a staunch supporter of the Oluyole Warrior has disclosed the juicy package he has in stock to motivate the boys to get the much desired result.

“I have procured a mouthwatering prize for any 3SC player that emerge as player of the season, while I have also cultivated other professionals to do the same in order to encourage the boys just as it’s done in European Leagues.

“A colleague of mine, Abiodun Alli has also purchased a wonderful gift for ‘Man of the match’ for tomorrow’s match while the team would also collectively enjoy monetary benefits if they can put smiles on the faces of the fans by securing the ticket after the match from many spirited individuals”, lawyer Jubril noted.
