  US Championship Side Signs Nigeria Youngster By Sampson Adedeji The lower league side of the United States of America, FC Tulsa has captured little known Nigeria youngster Stanley Oganbor, BSNSports.com.ng reports. Oganbor, just 22, began his career in the third division of Nigerian soccer, the Nationwide League One, with Lagos Islanders from 2015-17. His success with his hometown club at a young age allowed Oganbor to move to Slovakia to play for Inter Bratislava in the 3. Liga (third division). A significant leg injury cut short his time with Bratislava, but Oganbor still managed to score four goals and two assists before getting injured. After recovering from his leg injury, Oganbor returned to the Nationwide League One in Nigeria to play for Flight FC in 2019 and 2020. “Stanley is full of pace and power, and he’s a deceptive player with or without the ball,” said Nsien. “I believe his most effective position is at center forward where he’ll want to make his mark and to score goals. "Stanley is electric, and the supporters will be on the edge of their seats when he’s near the goal. "I’m excited to get him here and make sure he adapts properly to the way of life and the team culture in our city and with our club," said FC Tulsa coach Michael Nsien. "I am extremely excited to join FC Tulsa as a player," said Oganbor. I pray we'll achieve a lot together."
