Blackburn Rovers scout, Steve Hayes, has waxed lyrical of Victor Efosa Alyanyi’s immense talent.

The 16-year-old Nigerian, who hails from Edo State, is stealing the spotlight in the English football league with legendary Tranmere Rovers, often displaying unbelievable wealth of gift as a young footballer, such that has warranted a comparison with Bayer Leverkusen’s Dutch star of Ghanaian origin, Jeremie Frimpong.

Alyanyi shares a unique playing style with Frimpong, combining dribbling skills and electric pace to regularly leave his opponents for dead.

Beyond the limelight on the field of play, his talent has also been irresistible to top brands such as Herbalife and Under Armour, both of who have reached out to Alyanyi for business relationship.

Previously laced his boots for clubs like Burnley and Blackburn Rovers, Victor Alyanyi is unarguably regarded as a rising star generating significant interest from scouts and clubs.

 

“African talent often goes unrecognised, however, they are the next big thing in the sport industry,” Hayes stated.

 

Steve Hayes hints that Alyanyi would be an asset to Nigerian football, as he could walk in the footprints of some players currently making waves in the Super Eagles. He urged nurturing and investment in such treasures.

“The Nigerian national team is proof of this, with stars such as Ola Aina, Alexander Iwobi, and Calvin Bassey demonstrating high standards and levels in the senior game. Simultaneously, at the youth U18 level, players like Victor are showcasing the exceptional character and on-field prowess that distinguishes Nigerian talent.  Talent in Africa is the next big thing, and we need to invest in it, particularly in Nigeria,” said Steve Hayes.
