Dolphin right back Kennedy Chinwo has hails the organizers that will be bringing one of the best team in the world Arsenal FC to Nigeria to play Dolphin and has disclose the level of their readiness to compete with 13 times English Premiership champions.
It has been confirmed that Nigeria Premier League defending champions will tackle Arsenal on their pre-season tour to Nigeria in August, and Chinwo the former Flying Eagles star cannot wait to play against a team like Arsenal who have the largest fans in the country and could not imagine how the fans will turn up for such game.
“I am so excited when I heard the reports that a date has been confirmed for our game against Arsenal,” said Chinwo.
“We are perfectly ready to have a test against a team like Arsenal.
“It will really be a wonderful game on that day and I cannot imagine how the stadium will full because Arsenal have the largest fans in Nigeria and such a game could open doors for most of our guys here because Wenger on his own is a good coach though he does not believe in trophies but money.
“I wish this kind of things continue to enhance our league improvement.
Dolphins are facing some stiff test as they are already out of CAF Champions League and suffered 2-0 defeat in the hand of Enugu Rangers who currently occupies the top spot .in the midweek games.
“We are still in the race, there are plenty of games to be played and we have learnt from out lapses, we will bounce back. “We all felt bad for losing out in CAF Champions League and we are concentrating more on winning the league again. I think we wil do better next season when we are there again.
