NPFL: KWARA UNITED PART WAYS WITH 22 PLAYERS
Nigeria Premier Football League side Kwara United have parted ways with 22 players.
The general manager of the club, Bashir Badawiy, revealed this at the start of the team’s pre-season training in Ilorin on Monday
Badawiy said that 23 players have been recruited to strengthen the team ahead of the new season.
He urged the players to eschew indiscipline and work in line with the philosophy of the club.
“Players like Abayomi Samuel (Shooting Stars), Jimi Iteji (Plateau United), former U17, U20 and U23 goal stoppers Kazeem Badmus and Adamu Abubakar, as well as Ifeanyi Ogba (Rangers International), are on their way to join Kwara United,” Badawiy told the media.
“We have let go 22 players from last season to join clubs within and outside the country, as their services will not be required. The club is wishing them all the best but we are focused on the task ahead.
“Our expectation in the 2024–25 NPFL season is to finish among the top three, we don’t want to struggle again; check our records in the last two seasons; we were among the top four and even qualified for continental.”
