ABIKOYE Targets Return To Oman

ABIKOYE Targets Return To Oman

Former Sunshine Stars of Akure striker, Shakiru Abikoye has revealed that he is seriously thinking about making a return to the oil rich kingdom of Oman for a revival of his career, following two cries-riddled seasons playing for AS Tonerre of Benin Republic.<br /><br />The former Sunshine Stars and Delta Force attacker once had a short stint with SC Oman in the Middle East nation and, although he had to make an unceremonious retreat when the club&rsquo;s management suddenly changed hands after only six months of his arrival, he is now planning of making a return.<br /><br />Abikoye went on to gain a change of nationality and even played a couple of matches for the home-based Beninoise national team and the junior squad, but never found the going rosy at club level.<br /><br />&ldquo;It is such a sad situation that clubs in Benin Republic don&rsquo;t honour their contracts with players, and those of us from other countries are considered as outsiders, despite the fact that I have played for the national team.<br /><br />&ldquo;The league has been facing a lot of crisis ever since my arrival, which has prevented our clubs from paying us as expected. This is why I have started making plans for a return to Oman, and I pray that it will work out,&rdquo; said the Kwara State-born free-scoring striker.<br /><br /><b>Alexander Kenec</b><br />
