Or is it just about who knows whom.</span><span class="body1"><span class="body1"><span class="body1">&rdquo;<br /><br />The 40-year-old Ijeh starred for Malmo FF,&nbsp; IFK Gothenburg,&nbsp; FC Copenhagen, Viking FK,&nbsp; Syrianska FC and GAIS before he retired in 2012.<br /><br />Igho Kingsley <br /><br /></span></span></span><span style="">Photo Credit: gais.se</span><br />
