London, UK – Wetin we go hear today? Brazillian defender Luizão don officially pack his load and comot from West Ham United as dem sign am by mutual consent. This 23-year-old oga join dia squad from São Paulo back in January 2023, but e no fit see any Premier League pitch during im stay.
During im two and a half years for the academy, Luizão shine like star, making over 60 appearances and scoring six times. But you fit sabi say im just dey collect show, no be say dem give am proper game. For the last half of 2024/25 season, him go loan for Poland, where him dey play for Pogoń Szczecin, but e still no fit break into West Ham first team.
West Ham don thank am for im time as dem dey wish am better luck for future. According to dem, ‘As one door close, another go open’ – true talk! (Na dat one na common saying wey we dey hear for street, naija paddy). E no go miss de EPL run; e fit learn from this guy wey don waka plenty for football ground, Toni Martinez.
Martinez too no see chance for EPL, but see as e don dey shine for La Liga now, with stars like Robert Lewandowski and Kylian Mbappe as im padi. If Luizão fit get chance join Martinez for Spain in future, e go surely hold am with both hands. Na so dem sabi players dey manage dem career, sometimes better chance dey dey for outside!
Speaking of shining, Toni Martinez wey don score 14 goals as he leave West Ham, na im first season for Famalicão before im hit La Liga ground. E no be small, as e dey blossom for Deportivo Alaves. Dis one go show Luizão say no be only close door dey happen for football; sometimes na new beginning dey open door for you! (Just like when you chop better jollof rice, you go always wan come back for more).
But wetin go happen now wey Luizão don leave? West Ham go dey reshuffle dem squad as dem sabi say new young talents dey hustle for their chance. With Luizão comot, space dey for fresh blood to shine—maybe some of dem go fit carry the team become champions one day, who know?
Luizão’s exit no go sweet for him, but he go dey find better opportunity for new club wey go allow am paly ball. After all, every player wey come outside na to showcase their talent and make better moves for dem career. E go sweet make we see wetin next dey for him!
