Falconets striker Sophia Omidiji, 19, thinks her goals can fire KAA Gent into the Women’s Champions League next season.

Omidiji is set to end her association with FC Eindhoven as she is in advanced talks to join KAA Gent in the January transfer window and has already agreed personal terms with the Belgian club.

“It’s a good deal, hopefully I can help them push for a Champions League spot. I will try to help them win the league and hopefully the Champions League next season, ” said Sophia Omidiji to allnigeriasoccer.com.

KAA Gent Ladies are one point behind leaders Standard Liege in the Super League standings after 13 games played.

The 19-year-old Omidiji is expected to be unveiled by Gent next week.
