Nigeria's Super Eagles and IK Start midfielder Afeez Aremu has revealed what happened during his first training session in Norway.

Aremu joined Start few years back after having an excellent outing with the home based team under Coach Salisu Yusuf in 2017.

Aremu, during an Instagram interview sessions with Olawale Hamzat, said breathing was extremely difficult for him because of the weather conditions.

"My first training with IK Start was doom because of the high degree of cold because it was winter period.

"I find it difficult to kick the ball and I started regretting not go to school as my Dad prefer, I can't finished the training as I nearly die on the pitch but the officials of the club understand why it happened like that.

When I get to hotel I prayed and I contact some of the players playing in Russia to share their experience and it was one of them that tell me the secret," he stated.

Before moving abroad Aremu represented Remo Stars, Akwa United and Rivers United.
