Squad

Usman Sadiq breaks a bone — 73 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 73 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

A falling-out at Katsina United

Samson Obi and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

Abba Dali signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Abba Dali commits to Katsina United for another 4 years.

The dugout

Words exchanged at Katsina United

Samson Obi and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

The dugout

No hiding place for Musa Sulaiman

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Musa Sulaiman, and the manager let it.
