Paul Aigbogun praises Peter Olayinka's transfer to APOEL Nicosia

Nigerian coach Paul Aigbogun has expressed his support for Peter Olayinka following the forward's recent transfer to APOEL Nicosia. Olayinka, a 30-year-old Nigerian international, signed with the Cypriot club after being a free agent since leaving Red Star Belgrade in October. In an interview with Footy-Africa, Aigbogun, who previously led Nigeria’s U-20 team, highlighted the player's experience and potential impact on the team’s title ambitions. He noted that the Cypriot league’s style of play and recent growth in investment and competitiveness make it a suitable environment for Olayinka. Aigbogun emphasized that once the striker regains full match fitness, his contribution in scoring goals will be significant for the club. The coach also mentioned that Olayinka's background will help him adapt quickly to the game’s rhythm. This transfer follows several months of inactivity for the forward since his departure from the Serbian champions.
