In the race for the top scorer award in the Cypriot First Division, the 25 - year - old has just scored one goal less than Gaston Sangoy, who has netted 18 times for Apollon.
“I will try my hardest to become the top scorer this year. I am currently one goal behind Sangoy, but even if I don’t make it as top scorer I am really proud of my achievements so far,” he added.
Linked with clubs in Israel, Romania and Belgium, the Italian - Nigerian still has a contract with Ermis until the end of next season.
