Real Madrid Join Arsenal, Chelsea In The Race For Nigerian Whizkid
Published: June 02, 2016
Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report that FC Dordrecht superkid Lateef Omidiji Jr has emerged as a transfer target for Champions League winners Real Madrid. Los Blancos scouts were in the stands this past weekend as FC Dordrecht tackled Queens Park Rangers in a tournament and were grinning from ear to ear when he netted a beauty against the Londoners.
The 12-year-old Omidiji was clearly the best player in the competition; scoring goals, notching assists and dominated 14-year-olds.
Coaches from Ajax, PSV and R.S.C. Anderlecht, ran the rule over the teenager, who was born in the United States to a Nigerian father and an American mother from Las Vegas, at the tournament.
Lateef Omidiji Jr has also been scouted in the past by English Premier League teams Arsenal and Chelsea.
