Azeez Falolu, a promising 20-year-old midfielder, is preparing for a return to the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) following his brief stint in Libya, according to sources close to the player.
The young talent left the NPFL during the 2024-25 mid-season transfer window to pursue opportunities in Libya but is now looking to continue his career back in Nigeria's top flight.
Before his Libyan adventure, Falolu had established himself as a key player for Katsina United, where he impressed with five goals in 18 appearances for the Chanji Boys. His combative style in midfield made him a standout performer during his time with the club.
Previous NPFL Experience
Falolu's NPFL journey includes a spell at Akwa United before joining Katsina United, where he developed into a more complete midfielder. His goal-scoring ability from midfield positions made him particularly valuable to the Chanji Boys during his tenure.
Sources indicate that several NPFL clubs have already shown interest in securing Falolu's signature ahead of the upcoming season. The midfielder is expected to make a decision on his next destination before the 2025-26 campaign kicks off.
At just 20 years of age, Falolu represents one of the emerging talents in Nigerian football, with potential for further development as his career progresses.
The NPFL has recently seen increased activity in the transfer market, with several clubs strengthening their squads ahead of what promises to be a competitive 2025-26 season.
