Dele Aiyenugba's Son Inspires Kwara State To Win NFF Future Eagles U13 Championship
Published: September 19, 2017
Super Eagles goalkeeper, Dele Aiyenugba, seems to have inspired his 10-year-old son, Daniel Aiyenugba to follow in his footsteps.
Dele has 17 caps for the Super Eagles and helped Enyimba FC of Aba win the CAF champions league in 2003 and 2004.
His son, Daniel Ayenugba, over the weekend in Abuja, helped Kwara state win the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, Future Eagles U-13 championship (North Central Zone).
Daniel says his father, who now plays for Hapoel Ashkelon of Israel, is his role model.
''My father is my role model and he has been encouraging me to play football.
''He corrects my mistakes and also buys me kits.
''I’m happy we won this competition and I’m hoping to be a better goalkeeper, so that I can play outside the country,'' the Stephen Fountain Primary School, Ilorin, Kwara State, student said.
