Published: June 23, 2012

23-year-old Nigeria international defender Dele Adeleye has told the official website of SC Tavriya Simferopol that he has no plans to leave the club this summer, and intends to play under the guidance of the new coach Oleg Luzhny.

''Today I am a player of SC Tavriya Simferopol and do not intend to leave. We have a very good coach, I learn a lot from him. Will not be easy, but I like it.

''To get involved in the training process was easy, because all this time I worked with the second team twice a day. The problem was that I did not have a Schengen visa. Physically I'm ready for the season,'' Adeleye said.

Tavriya are having pre-season training in Austria. On Saturday, they won their second test game, beating Austrian second-tier side TSV Hartberg 2-1. Adeleye lasted the entire duration of the game.
