On Gafar, Agoye said he twisted his ankle against Remo Stars, he’s feeling better, but we don’t want to risk anything because it’s better for the club to wait a week for it to be well than force it which may lead to another calamity because every player was important to the team at this moment.

Gafar only goal was against Sunshine Stars since the start of the season while Bafan is yet to play to his satisfaction.
