'I Like To Hang On To The Ball' - Neymar-Like CSKA Moscow Winger Ejuke Sells Himself

Published: September 05, 2020

Super Eagles hopeful Chidera Ejuke has been selling himself to CKSA Moscow fans ahead of his home debut for the Muscovites after the international break.

The former SC Heerenveen man was surprisingly handed his debut two days after his signing was confirmed, coming off the bench in the 65th minute of CSKA Moscow's 3-0 road win against Akhmat Grozny on August 30.

Despite spending only 25 minutes on the pitch, Ejuke registered a team-high two take-ons, according to Whoscored.com.

Ejuke, who models his game after PSG's Brazil superstar Nyemar, has revealed that his dribbling skills and ability to create chances for his teammates stand him out.

"I am a kind of player that likes to hang on to the ball, make some actions, create opportunities for my team, score some goals and as well try to assist," Ejuke told CSKA Moscow TV.

"I am an exciting player and hopefully I can show what I have when I get started."

Ejuke, 22, was the top dribbler in the Dutch Eredvisie for the 2019-2020 season.
