Rashidi Yekini’s Daughter To Meet Portugal Club Over Father’s Foundation After Nigeria ‘Ignored’ Her
The daughter of late Africa Soccer
legend, Rashidi Yekini, Yemisi, will this weekend be traveling to Portugal to
hold talks with Portuguese club Victoria Setubal as regards her planned
Foundation for her late dad.
Victoria Setubal is arguably the
biggest foreign club Yekini played for in his active days. The club has been
supportive of any move to immortalise their former hero who they fondly
referred to as ‘Black god’.
In an interview with Premium Times,
the Yekini’s lawyer, Jubril Mohammed, confirmed the planned trip by Yemisi to
Portugal adding that the girl has resorted to seeking help outside the shores
of the country as very little assistance has come from Nigeria as regards
properly immortalising the former African Footballer of the Year.
