Akpeyi Will Move When The Time Is Ripe - Lawal

By Sampson Adedeji

The agent of Nigeria's Super Eagles goalkeeper Mohammed Lawal has confirmed that there are so many admirers for his client Daniel Akpeyi but he will only move when the time is ripe.

Akpeyi has been immense for Kaiser chief between the sticks this season and he was leading the race for the Goalkeeper of the Season award before PSL action was halted by the coronavirus, BSN Reports.

“Yes, there is interest in the services of Daniel. I won’t give you the names of the clubs. There’s interest from Belgium, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait.

At the moment, it is not about what we are considering. Daniel is a Kaizer Chiefs player. Chiefs recently renewed his contract just in January. So, as it is now, it is not in our hands to decide. These clubs have to talk to Chiefs first and we will take it from there. He extended his contract with two more seasons.

“Obviously when a player is still active, he will always aspire to move abroad. For now, he is not going to move for the just sake of moving. At the present moment, he is firmly focused on Chiefs and how he is going to help the club win titles during the duration of his contract,” Lawal told Kaizerchief media.

Akpeyi joined Amakhosi from Chippa United last year.
