As a consequence of its participation at the English and Welsh International Super Cup few months ago, three players of high-flying Lagos-based Buruj Sports Academy have been selected and invited for a trial in the United Kingdom to showcase their talent for an opportunity to get signed and gain scholarship.
The selected players Ilelaboye Adam, Fadeni Kehinde, and Dim Chinonso while it will also be recalled that Stanley Chidi Nwabuisi also successfully trialed at Turkish giants Besiktas in September.
Meanwhile Buruj is also set to participate at the Easter Opening International Youth Tournament in North-East Brabant Holland, through the Academy’s partnership with Team Tours Direct Ltd of Swansea-based sports business tycoon Terry O’Neill.
The Holland Cup is a two-day international youth football tournament. It has established itself as one of the largest tournaments in Holland.
Towards a successful participation at the Easter Soccer Fiesta, the management is willing to open a wealth of opportunities for more players to benefit from the Academy’s upcoming programs for next year and these will include participations at the Dubai International Super Cup, Manchester International Cup, English and Welsh International Super Cup as well as the Holland International Cup
This, according to CEO of Buruj Sports Academy, Dr Salahudeen Waheed, is to show the Academy’s commitment to engaging young talented players to partake in these international competitions and thereby showcase their talents to a wider global audience.
“We have shown consistently over the years that we have the capacity and willingness to include players from outside the Academy in our playing tours as long as they show discipline, are talented and ready to abide by our terms and conditions,” he said.
