Super Eagles forward Gift Orban has been nominated for the prestigious CAF Young Player of the Year award.
The 21-year-old striker has had a remarkable season for his Belgian club side Gent, scoring 27 goals in 38 appearances.
Orban’s nomination is a testament to his hard work and dedication. He joined Gent from Norwegian side Stabaek in January 2023, and he quickly established himself as one of the most prolific strikers in the Belgian Jupiler Pro League.
Orban is a natural goalscorer. He is quick, strong, and has a knack for finding the back of the net. He is also a good dribbler and passer, which makes him a well-rounded forward.
Orban’s nomination for the CAF Young Player of the Year award is a major achievement for him and for Nigerian football. It is also a sign of things to come for the young striker. He has the potential to be one of the best strikers in Africa, and he is already making his mark on the international stage.
