Arsenal Midfielder Nwakali, Three U17 World Cup Winners Who Should Consider Moving To Belgian League To Save Their Careers

Arsenal Midfielder Nwakali, Three U17 World Cup Winners Who Should Consider Moving To Belgian League To Save Their CareersVictor Osimhen's career witnessed a tremendous turnaround last season following his move to Belgian side Sporting Charleroi.

The former U17 World Cup winner had an unfruitful spell with Bundesliga side Wolfsburg but he returned to great form as he found the back of the net on 20 occasions.

Just like the 20-year-old striker, Liverpool loanee Taiwo Awoniyi also had an eventful season with Royal Excel Muoscron where he scored 14 goals in all competitions.

Considering the improvements in both players' confidence level, coupled with Henry Onyekuru and Samuel Kalu's wonderful record during their time in Belgium, it  won't be out of place to suggest that the Belgian First Division A presently provides great atmosphere for young players to project their career to a new level.

In this regards, allnigeriasoccer.com predicts four Nigeria players who need to be in Belgium if they must bring their career back on track next season.

Kelechi Nwakali

The 2015 U17 World Cup winner and Arsenal midfielder has made little or no progress since his move to the Emirates Stadium, no thanks to unending loan deals which unsettled his career.

Moving to Belgium might help him regain his form and confidence just like his U17 teammate Victor Osimhen.

Musa Yahaya

Yahaya was tipped for greatness after helping Nigeria win the U17 World Cup in 2013 but the Mutunchi Academy product  has failed to maintain steady growth.

He currently plays for FC Porto B but a switch to Belgium will do his career much good than harm.

Funsho Bamgboye

Just like Kelechi Nwakali, Funsho Bamgboye is yet to live up to the promises he showed during his days with the Golden Eaglets.

The pacy and quality left winger struggled for game-time with his side Szombathelyi Haladás throughout last season.

It is good seeing him compete against his compatriots in Belgium but it will be a huge task finding an interested suitor.

Dele Alampasu

Tipped as Enyeama's heir by many Super Eagles supporters based on his blistering performances for the Golden Eaglets in 2013.

Unfortunately, Dele Alampasu has somewhat failed to live up the hype but a switch to the Belgian League might just be the only criterion needed to catapult the goalie to a greater level of his career.
