“Don’t rush abroad”- Ex-Seattle Sounders striker advises Nigerian players

Former Seattle Sounders, Podgorica of Montenegro, and Balikesirspor of Turkey striker, Josiah Emmanuel, has called on players plying their trade in the domestic leagues in Nigeria to be grounded and spend some time in the country before thinking of going abroad.

According to him, this will prepare them for what to face overseas when they finally make their desired moves.

Emmanuel, who is currently back in the Nigeria Professional Football League where he laces his boot for Heartland of Owerri, said he decided to return to Nigeria to prepare him better after playing in Europe and the USA.
