Six players from Abu Dhabi Football Academy have relocated to Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and begun training with a new club, following support from the Deputy Chief of Staff to the Niger State Governor, Sadiq Yusuf, popularly known as “D’Cos”.
The players completed their move to Dubai and took part in their first training session with the club on Tuesday, beginning a new phase in their football development.
Yusuf’s intervention helped the players complete arrangements for their relocation and take up the opportunity to continue their football careers in the UAE.
The move followed an appeal for assistance to enable the players complete their travel arrangements and join the Dubai-based team.
Vice President of Abu Dhabi Football Academy, Usman Chata, expressed appreciation to Yusuf for supporting the players’ transition.
Chata said the intervention was timely and would give the young footballers an opportunity to develop their skills and gain further experience in the UAE.
With the six players now training with their new team, they are expected to continue preparations as they seek to establish themselves in the UAE football scene.
