Lagos, Nigeria – E be like say Dele Alli no fit sabi how to knack ball for Como o! As him just spend only ten minutes for field, dem don carry him go. On Monday wey be 19th, dem announce say dem don gree to part ways amicably.
Alli, wey just clock 29 years, don manage reach Como since January 2024. Him sign 18 months contract, but na just one game he don play since he land. Wetin spoil the show? Na that straight red card wey him collect for dem loss wey dem get against Milan back in March. Chai! E no sweet at all (no dey worry, things go better).
As the club and the player talk, dem all agree say e better make both of dem waka their separate ways. Dem say, “Dele dey look for chance to play more games, and since e no dey part of the immediate plans for Como, dem feel say na the right decision.” E no go small matter to be ex-England international wey dey always waka with injury since 2023. Na so he dey struggle to get chance to shine for pitch.
Now, Dele don dey find where e go fit play ball well and make fans dey cheer am again (we sabi say he go soon settle down). Meanwhile, how far with Manchester United? Dem don snag young Senne Lammens for 21 million euros plus change. Na beljam wey just 23 years old and he dey shine for Royal Antwerp like star (hope say e no go join the injury party o!).
Lammens sabi the way to stop ball as he don keep 12 clean sheets for 60 matches since e start his career. Last season, him lead the European leagues for hefty saves, and na him be the best under-23 wey fit throw accurate passes. Jason Wilcox, the big oga for football at United, don already talk say, “Senne na excellent young goalkeeper, with plenty potential.”
The dude don land for dream club wey he don dey look up to since forever. He talk say, “Na dream wey don come true. I get high hopes say I fit bring something special to the team.” But e no be small wahala for the current United goalies o! Andre Onana and Altay Bayindir dey face plenty struggles this season.
Remember when Onana allow two goals wey make dem take smack United for Cop of League against Grimsby Town? And Bayindir don gaffe join for dem small-win against Burnley. E no easy to be goalkeeper for United this season, but we still dey cheer dem. As United coach Ruben Amorim talk, “E hard to be goalkeeper now. Dem na humans too, you know!”
So, as we dey watch for the new season how Lammens go fit shine and wetin go happen to Alli, One thin wey clear be say, for football anything fit happen anytime. Na so e be!
