Rasheedat Ajibade
Super Falcons Forward Rasheedat Ajibade is optimistic of better days in her new Norwegian club Avaldsnes IL.
Ajibade, who is in China with the national team for an invitational tournament, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja prior to her departure that she was hopeful of developing herself in Europe.
The 19-year-old signed a two year deal with the club in December and is expected to resume ahead of the Toppserien league (the first tier of Norwegian women’s football) in March.
“I am very grateful to God, it is a dream come true,’’ the Nigerian female football freestyle champion said as she sees her nine year stay in FC Robo Queens come to a halt.
