Highly rated Nigerian teen forward Chidera Ejike ended up on the winning side in his first trial game with Norwegian side Valerenga.
The soon to be 18 year old arrived in Norway three days ago for a reported one week trial with Valerenga, where he would be offered a contract if he impresses the handlers of the team.
Ejike was given his baptism of fire in their game against Swedish side Djugarden, coming on as a substitute with 10 minutes left to play in the game which ended 3-0 in favour of Valerenga.
Known for his quick feet, incisive passes and good turn of pace “Nigeria Iniesta” as he is fondly called by the media in Nigeria is regarded as one of the best teen prospect in the Nigeria National League (NNL).
