Enyimba still intact

The management of the two time African champions, Enyimba International Football Club of Aba has said that the anticipated mass exodus of players did not affect the peoples Elephant. Speaking to nigeriasports.com on phone, the Club's media officer, Tonnex Chukwu said more than 25 of the regular team players are already in camp.

According to him, the team is still in tact and to avoid future disappointments had gone to the transfer market to make some purchases.

"We threw open our doors to players who want to try elsewhere. We quite appreciate them so much for what they did in the last two seasons and would not want to hold tight on them. That will be selfishness."

"More than 25 of the regular players are in camp already. Those who are not present are assumed to be those wishing to leave and they are free. We equally know that some of them in the camp may have clubs that will come for them, we are prepared for all these developments,

"We have been to the transfer market and filled all noticeable lapses and loopholes in the team. We are very prepared to defend the champions league and possibly reclaim the Globacom premier league title".

I must commend the management of the Aba Elephants for their mature way of allowing their hard earned players to seek for greener pastures elsewhere.I must commend them for this! I'll like to advice other Nigerian clubs to emulate Enyimba in this direction.
I'm also confident that they are shopping for good replacements for their former players. Let the Coaching crew do a nice job by putting the new and old players in a good shape b/4 the league starts next month.
Up Enyi! Up Aba!! Up Gazzy!!!

There is no problem for the champion. They have been doing it and they will do it again. There are still good players in the team who have not proved themselves and this time they won't want their names to be in the Club's Black Book

This is what is call professionalism. A good management cannot hold a player to ransom,hence the normal procedure is followed.Again ,Enyimba management should not take every thing for granted,if they still want to maintain the standard already set.With a lot of resources at their desposal,i strongly believe that with or without exodus of players, Enyimba can still attain high level.Good luck.
