Ejaria Explains Why He Chose Liverpool Ahead Of Man City, Chelsea

Former Golden Eaglets trainee Ovie Ejaria has explained why he had to sign for Liverpool in the summer of 2014, and passed up the chance to sign a scholarship with Arsenal.

The central midfielder had been approached by several Premier League clubs not limited to Chelsea and Manchester City but chose the Reds after he was given a tour of their training facilities.

“I was offered a scholarship at Arsenal and I chose to turn it down,” Ejaria told Liverpoolfc.com.

“I had opportunities to go to different clubs. I had a look at Liverpool and it was the only club I went to, because I enjoyed it a lot.”

After impressing during pre-season, Ejaria made his senior debut against Derby County in the League Cup and has played four more games for the first team this term.
