President and Founder of UMB Division One League (DOL) side Nukunu FC, Eric Edem Agbana, has sent a message to the club’s fans following the team’s difficult start to their debut season in the Ghanaian second tier.
‘’I know the fans are eager for results, but it is still a long season ahead. I appeal to them to remain patient and, most importantly, continue supporting the team.
The injuries, instability with our home venue, and a few other setbacks have given us a difficult start to the season, but we are not worried. The boys are gradually building their confidence and improving with every game.
I watched the video of our match against WAFA, and although we lost, I was very proud of the boys. We played beautiful football, and that is exactly the kind of football I want to see as President of the Club.
We have deliberately introduced some very young players into the squad, and they are doing remarkably well.
That is a major part of our focus: building a competitive team while developing young talents who can represent Nukunu FC and attract opportunities at the highest level.
After Matchday Three, if you ask who some of the most promising young players in the Division One League are, names like Elorm and Alorgbey will certainly come up.
We are already receiving enquiries from scouts who are taking interest in some of our players, which is encouraging.
We have 27 matches still to play. It will not be easy, but we know what we are building, and I remain confident in the team.
Our target is to finish in the top five, and I believe we have the quality, the structure and the character to achieve that.
We are not panicking. We are building,’’ Mr Agbana said.
