Dolphin outlines 2005 ambition

“It will not be wise to name players we are talking to until the deals have been sealed but I want to assure that only the best will be taken up by the club nest season,” Musa Abdulahi told nigeriasports.com.

“We have a complete team already or else we would not have won the league and cup, but that is not to say that we have a perfect side. No side is perfect and coaches will have to continue adding and subtracting until they get what they want.”

nigeriasports.com investigations reveal that the search light of Dolphin may move to Enyimba of Aba who may lose as many as four players to Dolphin while two are being targeted from Shooting Stars.

Coach Musa Abdulahi revealed that one factor that led to the success of Dolphin last season was the one-month long closed camping in Eket just before the start of the season.

“Many people wondered what the secret of our success was last season but we had a head start over other teams who were still recruiting players when our team was in Eket sweating it out for one month”

“With the high level of concentration there it was easy to take our opponents by surprise in the first few games of the league and we hope to do the same thing next season.”

The Technical Adviser suggested that the club may return to Eket before the start of next season or go to Sol Beni in Cote d’Ivoire.

Dolphin players have proceeded on a three week break and will return to camp in the 1st week of November to kick start preparations for the new season that may likely start on the 3rd week of November.
