Aiyenugba’s Hapoel Ashkelon currently lies on the 11th position on the log of 14 teams.
The 34-year-old goalkeeper also expressed his satisfaction with the current Super Eagles squad and the state of things with the team right now.
“I think the team has got it right now, everything is working perfectly, the guys in the team are ready to fight and win”
