NPFL Don Turn Talent Export: Why Nigerian Players Dey Run Go Abroad
Di Nigerian Premier Football League (NPFL) na place wey dem dey see plenty football talent, but di wahala for di country economy and di way dem dey manage di league don make players dey comot go find beta life for abroad.
Di latest people wey don join di waka comot na Daniel Daga from Enyimba FC and Ismael Sodiq from Remo Stars. Dis kain thing no be new matter, but e still dey pain as e dey happen. NPFL don produce plenty stars for di past, but dem dey always lose dem to Europe and other African clubs. Di main problem no far: di salary and welfare wey dem dey pay players no reach anything.
Nigeria get plenty resources, but di economy no dey help footballers grow. Most players na di main person wey dey provide for dia family, and di small salary wey NPFL clubs dey pay no fit carry di load.
Dis problem dey affect di league well well. Coaches dey struggle to build beta team because players dey comot every time. Clubs go dey find new players up and down, and dis dey cost money and time. E still dey affect di national team because di experienced players no dey stay long.
See Sodiq own, e pain well. Di Remo Stars defender suppose play for CHAN tournament, but e no fit again because e don comot. Daniel Daga own na different matter. E still dey young and e get future, but di kain way wey e take go show say more players go soon follow di same road.
If NPFL and Nigerian Football Federation no do something sharp sharp, di matter no go change. Dem gatz improve players salary, give dem beta welfare, and make di league better. If dem no act fast, dis brain drain go continue, and Nigerian football go just dey suffer.
If dem manage di league well and invest for di game, NPFL fit become one of di best leagues for di world, wey go dey produce world-class players. But for now, di talent dey waka go where opportunity dey. Di time to make di change na now!
