Mutiu-Adepoju

Former Super Eagles player, Mutiu Adepoju, has called for consistency in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL).

The 48-year-old told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Monday that achieving consistency in Nigeria’s premier league was the only way of keepin up with European leagues.  

The headmaster, as he is fondly called, said that all hands must be on deck to help the country’s league to an enviable height.

“We know it may not be very easy to get there but with consistency, we will get there.

“Although, LMC is trying but more need to be done in order to make the dream realisable,” Adepoju said.

The ex-Nigerian international commended the League Management Company (LMC) for strides being made to reposition the league, adding that there is hope for the NPFL.

He also lauded the present crop of Super Eagles for their outstanding performances.

He added that the present senior national team could not be compared to his era of the team because of the differences in periods.
