Ex-Liverpool Trialist Ejuke Wants To Play In The Premier League, Valued At N4.05 Billion
Published: March 12, 2020
Nigerian winger Chidera Ejuke is hoping to play in the English Premier League in the near future, according to SC Heerenveen insider Sander de Vries.
The former Valerenga starlet is having an outstanding season at Heerenveen, having contributed to 16 goals (10 goals, 6 assists) in 29 appearances across all competitions for the modest Dutch club.
Prior to his switch to Valerenga, Ejuke, who is now valued at ten million euros (N4.05 billion), trained with the youth team of Liverpool in April 2016 and had attracted concrete interest from Manchester City.
"He was really good (against Ajax), but he has to become more efficient," Sander de Vries told feanonline.nl.
"His return has to go up. If he had that too, then he would be complete, I would say. I think that will leave next summer.
"I also think he is the only player of SC Heerenveen that can deliver a monster amount. I see for example, Van Bergen will not leave for an amount of 10 million euros. I think Ejuke will come close to that amount. "
Ejuke is ranked the top dribbler in the whole of the Dutch Eredivisie with 176 successful take-ons and he has been advised to change his playing style if he is to be a success should he move to England.
De Vries added : "He would like to go to the Premier League himself, he also told us that. I wonder if he is suitable for that, because the pace is so high there.
"He prefers to keep the ball with him for as long as possible, with those shin guards on the ankle. Then I think that after two games he will Premier League needs two artificial legs, then he has to wear a harness to play football".

Though the left wing role is his favorite position, Ejuke can also be deployed as an attacking midfielder and center forward.
