Rafiu Durosinmi (20) signs for Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt

[Lolly]

Oyibo talk say, “When it rains, it pours”.
Yet another top striker coming through.

Please, let us beg the god of football.
We need two top midfielders, one world class central defender and one above average goalkeeper.
We will pay.
Abeg.

It’s difficult to understand how we cannot get the likes of Ugochukwu, Olise or Chukwuemeka to play for us with the avalanche of world class strikers that we have

Or why is it difficult for us to find good midfielders from the large pool of Nigerian exports currently plying their trade outside Africa.

As I always say, if you are good, the clubs will find you. This guy here was on the radar of 3 Premier League clubs and Eintracht Frankfurt while playing in a backwater league. Same way Boniface found his way to Germany.

Boniface lit up the Europa league last season. Clubs were forced to notice.

Boniface was noticed before he signed for Union but they took the gamble.

Not surprising given how well he has been with Viktoria Plzen the only worry is he has been out injured since October

Oh no!

[Damunk]

Wow.
I hope it’s not another of those ‘silent’ heart problems.
With the high publicity generated by Erikson at the WC and more recently the same cardiac arrest in Lockyer of Luton Town, nobody wants to risk it.
Hopefully, whatever the problem is, it is correctable.
Kanu came back.
Erikson is back.

Poor kid must be devastated.

Rafiu Durosinmi: Viktoria Plzen’s Nigerian forward’s move to Eintracht Frankfurt aborted – report

The promising Nigerian talent had impressed in the Czech Republic and had been tipped to be a major hit in the German Bundesliga. In a surprising turn of events, the much-anticipated transfer of Nigerian striker Rafiu Durosinmi to Eintracht Frankfurt has collapsed, Soccernet.ng reports.

After excelling at Viktoria Plzen, Durosinmi was expected to be one of Frankfurt’s first winter signings.

However, Eintracht Frankfurt have decided to cancel the €9 million deal after an undisclosed abnormality surfaced during Durosinmi’s medical examination, as per Bild.

Notably, this issue was unrelated to the knee injury the player was recuperating from.
The intended move had held great significance for both parties, as Durosinmi was set to join the ranks of the 2022 UEFA Europa League champions.


The striker was slated to sign a contract, extending his stay with the club until 2028.
Eintracht Frankfurt had envisioned him as a potential replacement for Randal Kolo Muani, who departed for PSG during the previous transfer window.


The collapse of this deal comes as a setback for Durosinmi, who had been tipped to be the most gifted Nigerian to play at Frankfurt since the legendary Austin Okocha in the nineties.
Durosinmi had displayed promising form in the Fortuna Liga, the top-tier division of the Czech Republic until his season was interrupted by a knee injury sustained in October.

The 20-year-old had scored six goals and notched six assists in only 11 league games for Viktoria Plzen.

This is a hard one to take. I can't imagine what the boy is going through right now.

[bushboy]

Dang! My poor boy.

He will bounce back. Get well soon.

[danfo driver]

All hail the bushmen.

As soon as I saw this, I feared the worst! My God! what manner of person are you? Why do you use the lives and career of young boys to do juju? Destroying Isaac Success was not enough for you?

This is the reason Boniface's grandmother had to travel all the way to Germany to rebuke you and sanctify her grand son

if bushboy hates on Osimhen hard enough we might just win this Afcon somehow.

It’s troubling. Very troubling.

Guess they have moved on. Bushboy, you are very very wicked!
