The tournament, according to the organizer, Edwin Chigozie Nwagwu, the President of G-Innovation Football Club, the tournament was a resounding success.
“We discovered so many talented young footballers, but in the end, we eventually settled for the best 8 players selected from the teams that participated. And I tell you, it wasn’t an easy task.
“We’re able to select players in the molds of Kanu, Osimhen, Rufai, Mikel, and Okocha. We’re also confident that in the next few years, they would come strong and dominate the football world,” the youthful football administrator enthused confidently.
Experienced Nigerian football coach, Gbenga Ogunbote and the foreign scouts, waxed lyrical on the impressive talents discovered at the tournament. As they also agreed in unison, the future is bright for Nigerian football.
