Chelsea Academy product Ola Aina has expressed his desire to continue working hard and improving so he can be labelled a world class player in future.
The versatile fullback has put the disappointment of missing the 2018 World Cup behind him, saying it was a blessing in disguise.
After the tournament in Russia, Aina got out of his comfort zone to pursue a career in Italy with Torino, who initially signed him on loan before the deal was made permanent at the beginning of this season.
Regarded as one of the fastest players in the Serie A, the Super Eagles star has said that he wants to start winning trophies, something which he achieved during his time with Chelsea youth teams.
When asked about his goals for the future, Aina said on Instagram Live : "I want to keep good level of playing as long as I can, I feel like I a not really a kid anymore, I want to start wining trophies, titles and leagues, playing week in, week out.
"I want to maintain a level that I have done my best, I am doing my best, a level that people can look at and say that's world class. A consistent level".
Aina was a key member of the Super Eagles squad that won the bronze medal at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.
