Former Golden boy of Nigerian football Lukman Haruna who is currently on trial with French Ligue 1 side Lens scored the winner in their 1-0 pre season win over Quevilly – Rouen.
Haruna started trials with the team few days ago, and he did his chances of penning a permanent deal with the club a whole lot of good, when he struck the winner in the 46th minute of their friendly encounter.
Aside the goal, he was very lively and put in a commendable shift particularly impressive because he hasn’t played a lot of football in the last six months since his loan deal with Astana of Kazakhstan was prematurely terminated.
The former Monaco midfielder who represented Nigeria at the 2010 World Cup has lost his way, no thanks to a six months injury lay off, and issues bothering on his attitude and overall discipline on and off the pitch.
Once tipped as a future captain of the senior national team of Nigeria, the last game the 26 year old played for Nigeria was against Tanzania and he was yanked off in the first half by then Super Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh.
