From Lion’s Den to European Stage: Opeyemi’s Big Leap
Opeyemi Ezekiel signs a 6-month loan with Neftçi Baku Football Club, with an option for a permanent deal until 2028.
At 167cm, Ope is an Atom Lion, a relentless central midfielder, an elite ball-winner, and a master reader of the game.
He was registered with 36 Lion at age 12 by Coach Sulaimon Hamidi before Coach Akinshola Akinrele took over the responsibilities of his department.
We wish this Lion all the best as he is ready to shine in Azerbaijan and beyond.
