SAMMY SODJE: I Have Rejected Several Offers
Super Eagles defender Sam Sodje has cleared the air on the reason why he is yet to join any club in the on going league season.<br /><br />Speaking exclusively to <b>allnigeriasoccer.com</b>, the London born Warri bred rock solid goal scoring defender who last played for English League one side Notts County in the immediate past season disclosed that he has rejected a handful of clubs in top leagues as he decided to take time out to undergo a corrective knee surgery to sort out his troublesome knee once and for all.<br /><br />" I have received many good offers from a handful of great clubs but my manager advised me to sort out my knee once and for all so I can bounce back unhindered whenever I do sign for any club of my choice," began the younger brother of Super Eagles 2002 World Cup defender Efe Sodje.<br /><br />"As we speak, there are some lovely offers on the table, including one from a top Scottish side but I have had some issues with my knees which I have been postponing for sometime. I could have done it immediately the last season ended but i felt i could postpone it further but as the new season approached and clubs started coming for me, I did not feel 100% fit so my manager adviced me to sort it out once and for all and I shall undergo surgery any moment from now," he added.<br /><br />"If not for this knee, I was already doing enough to be considered for a call up to the Super Eagles. Every time I have been called up, I have given a good account of myself and I am sure that with Stephen Keshi being a goal scoring defender in his playing days just like me, he will like my style of play and give me a chance to fight for a shirt. When he does that he will not regret because I will contribute in making the team stronger.''<br /><br /><b>Johnny Ogbah</b><br />
