Nigeria U23 Star Misses Scouts From Monaco, Inter Milan & Sevilla

Oghenekaro Etebo, 20, missed an opportunity to showcase his skills when Feirense tackled Boavista in the Portuguese Primeira Liga on Sunday, September 18.

The Nigeria international is still few days away from full recovery from an injury he suffered in training before his team took on Tondela in the league.

Scouts from Inter Milan, Sevilla, Monaco and Bayer Leverkusen were at the Estádio do Bessa Século XXI (Porto) to observe at close quarters the top stars in the ranks of  Feirense and Boavista.

This website can reveal that Etebo was on the radar of Ligue 1 clubs before he committed his future to Feirense and was scouted during the 2015 African U23 Cup of Nations.

It is known that the unnamed teams from France have reignited their interest in the former Udinese trialist after he displayed his wares at the 2016 Olympic Games.
