B36 Torshavn Overview

The Saudi club is seeking strong reinforcements.

Former Kaizer Chiefs goalkeeper Daniel Akpeyi has expressed his delight at seeing the 30-year-old return to club football with the Chilli Boys, but he has coupled his praise with a stern warning. While the move offers the former Enyimba star a chance to rebuild his career, Akpeyi insists that reclaiming Nigeria national team’s number one shirt will be a significant challenge given the competition from Europe-based stars.

Nigeria's goalkeeper has finally returned to the Eastern Cape-based outfit, but the reason behind his February departure from the Chilli Boys has only now been revealed. His representative has opened up about the immense emotional toll the shot-stopper endured before opting to leave the club and spend months on the sidelines without a team.

Former Amakhosi goalkeeper Daniel Akpeyi has weighed in on the 30-year-old’s surprising decision to return to the Chilli Boys for the upcoming season. After appearing to be on the verge of a high-profile move following his heroics for Nigeria during the last AFCON finals, the shot-stopper has instead opted for familiar surroundings in the Eastern Cape.
