Super Falconets duo, Esther Onyenezide and Opeyemi Ajakaye, former players of Robo Queens FC in Lagos, have reportedly made a significant move to join Madrid CFF in Spain, Soccernet.ng reports.
The talented duo, who recently transferred to Madrid CFF, have been key players for Robo Queens FC prior to their latest move.
Notably, Ajakaye showcased her scoring prowess last month by netting a goal in the reverse fixture of the U-20 Women’s World Cup Qualifiers against Burundi.
While Esther, who recently gained a call up to the Nigerian women’s senior national team, showed her skills in Nigeria’s home clash against Cape Verde at the MKO Abiola Stadium, Abuja.
Their impressive performances have caught the attention of the national team coach, as both players are expected to be included in the Super Falconets squad for the upcoming U-20 World Cup in Colombia later this year.
The Spanish Women’s Club, Madrid CFF, has reportedly signed Esther Onyenezide and Opeyemi Ajakaye from FC Robo Queens in the NWFL Premiership.
