It’s all about the player Daniel Bamejia Nigerian who is in the eye of the hurricane for this situation.
Apparently the 17-year-old footballer invented the team he supposedly plays for, to be included in the squad for his team.
The starting defender and captain of Nigeria under-20 plays for a club that apparently does not exist, as reported by several local media in information collected by American journalist Brian Sciaretta.
Bameyi says he plays for Yum Yum FC, a Nigerian team of which there is no record, according to the ‘Own Goal Nigeria’ media.
In addition, there is no other player registered with this club, and members of the federation of the city where it claims to be, Abuja, deny the existence of the Yum Yum Football Club.
It was the DT Jose Peseirothe ex-assistant of Carlos Queiroz, the one in charge of summoning it. And he said: “I chose him because he is a great defender, there are players of the same level, but I have to choose players that I trust.”
