Owngoalnigeria.com editorial team is by this medium sending our apologies to the agent of Nigeria international goalkeeper Daniel Akpeyi and the player himself over the report aired on this portal last week.
Mohammed Lawal who was quoted as the one who granted the interview has since revealed that at no time did he grant such and already the writer of the story has been dealt with internally.
While clearing the air, the South African based ex Nigeria Professional Football League ace said his client has no spiritual problem and wondered where the quotes came from.
” I didn’t grant any interview on Akpeyi having spiritual problem. It’s a figment of the imagination of the writer as my client is having the form of his life and presently ranks among the best in Africa”, he told Owngoalnigeria.com in a statement.
Akpeyi is in the running to be named Kaizer Chiefs player of the season after series of man of the match performances and according to Lawal his form has alerted top clubs but his first priority is still with his present club as he has two more years to run on his deal.
” It’s very normal for offers to pour in base on the form he is having this season but he has two more years to run on his deal and any move has to depend on the purchasing power of the club interested in him”.
