Twenty players have caught the attention foreign scouts who stormed Yenagoa, the Bayelsa State capital, for the ongoing Governor’s Football Tournament, popularly known as the ‘Prosperity Cup’.

The scouts, made up of both local and foreign parties, had visited the state few days ago with the hope of identifying raw talents for possible trials abroad, and had since returned to their base, promising to reveal the players that caught their attention.

Mr Akpe who was elated by the development, reiterated that his joy will be completed once the players are successful in their trials and sign professional contracts abroad.

“This has been our vision, that from this tournament which has come to stay, to give potential footballers the opportunity to showcase their skills, so that they can be spotted and move on to play professional football in both local and foreign clubs.

“We are already working on inviting the scouts for a second time, and that will be towards the end of the competition, and I believe that more players will discovered, because we intend to present more selected players, than what we brought in this phase.

“Once again I wish to thank His Excellency, Senator Douye Diri, for this great support to this competition. This about the most successful so far because of what we are achieving. I thank the Youth and Sports Development Commissioner, Hon Daniel Igali, and other stakeholders for their various contributions, and we hope it gets better in the future.”
