Lokomotive Astana, Aktobe FK Lead Sprint For NAVEY RICHMORE; Eyes Eagles Invitation

As the countdown continues towards Nigeria’s return to the Africa Cup of Nations next year, more of the country’s foreign-based players are clamouring for attention from Super Eagles coach, Stephen Keshi, and Kazakstan-based Navey Weinidimie Richmore (Dimie) does not want to miss out on the spiraling effect.

In order to be counted among those who could get a look-in from Keshi, Dimie has put forward a strong CV, which he hopes close associates of ‘The Big Boss’ would help him push through and ensure that he is called up for one or two build-up friendlies.

Dimie’s track record in the past season saw him emerge top scorer, with five goals, in the colours of Asbest FK and the attacking midfielder said he was happy that one of his goals came a day after his girlfriend put to bed and his team gained promotion from his effort.

“It was a day before my last game and my girl just put to bed a baby boy for me. We named David Perowei Navey.

“I scored that day and my team was promoted to the premier league and I was named the best striker in the first league of Kazakhstan,” Dmie disclosed.

He added that three teams now have their eyes on him from the Kazakhstan top-flight league, but says he is yet to make up his mind on what choices to make ahead of next season.

“Lokomotive Astana, Aktobe FK and one team from the first division, Bayterek Astana have expressed interest in having me, but I am yet to give them any answer.

“For now, my dream is to play for my country at the Nations Cup in South Africa. It that is not possible, I will not mind starting with the under-23 team,” Dimie concluded.
