Ifeanyi: I rejected offers from Pillars, Enyimba, Warri Wolves

By Akeem Lawal
MOUNTAIN of Fire and Miracles Ministries Football Club (MFM FC) midfielder, Ifeanyi Ifeanyi has disclosed that he rejected offers from top Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) sides including Kano Pillars, Enyimba, Warri Wolves and Enugu Rangers during the mid season transfer window.


Ifeanyi who has been an ever present for the Olukoya Boys with top-notch performances in the ongoing NPFL season was also at his best as MFM defeated Ikorodu United 3-1 in the Match Day 25 decided at the Agege Stadium on Sunday.

In a chat with Sportsbiz247.blogspot.com after the encounter, the former Flying Eagles midfielder said he has no intention of joining any club in the country as he only plans to move abroad when the opportunity comes.

“Actually, at the end of the first round, there were teams that came for me like Kano Pillars, Warri Wolves, Enyimba, Rangers but MFM has being my home. Even if I am going to leave MFM, it will be Europe by the special grace of God," he said.

The former Nigeria Under-20 midfield maestro however believes he can still feature for the country’s senior national team, Super Eagles while still playing at the Lagos based outfit.


“Where ever you play, you can get a call up. There are players out there in Asian countries and in African countries who are invited to the national team. The club you play for does not matter. What matters most is your ability and what people can see in you. Playing for MFM does not stop me from playing in the Super Eagles. 

"I was actually playing for MFM when I went to the FIFA U-20 World Cup in New Zealand. I believe I can play in the Super Eagles while still playing with MFM,” he told Sportsbiz247.blogspot.com.
