Oboabona’s Arsenal Snub Was Wrong__Ikpeba
\nFormer African Footballer of the year Victor Ikpeba has said it was wrong for Godfrey Oboabona not to undergo trials with EPL side Arsenal.
\nOboabona earlier said it was disrespectfull for Arsenal to ask him to undergo trials after what he has achieved with the Super Eagles
\nBut Ikpeba in a chart with reporters said, \u201cOboabona was wrongly advised, he should have gone for the trials even if he does not make it into the main team, another English side would have seen him.
\n\u201cI know he would say he won the AFCON and plays for Sunshine Stars but he should understand that it’s not the same way these European coaches view European and South American players they view African Players.
\n\u201cYes, we have talent but you need to understand how they play, adjust to their weather and a lot of things, so I think he should have gone for the trials because I know Arsene Wenger has a lot of respect for respect,\u201d the Prince of Monaco concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
