The management of Buruj Football Club congratulated Malobi on the achievement and wished him success in his new environment.
“The club remains committed to creating pathways for talented Nigerian footballers to achieve their dreams on the international stage,” the club stated.
“Congratulations, Malobi Ebubechukwu David! Wishing you success with FK Naftëtari.”
