Striker Olaha returns to SLNA to celebrate Lunar New Year with teammates
(Baonghean.vn) - This afternoon (January 30), striker Michael Olaha returned to SLNA to practice with his teammates. He will celebrate Vietnamese New Year with his teammates and join the Nghe An team after Tet.
This afternoon, before the friendly match between SLNA and Thanh Hoa, foreign player Michael Olaha went to the field to practice with his teammates. However, because the Nghe An team is testing foreign players, he only practiced and did not play.
Because SLNA has not officially had a new sponsor, the Nigerian foreign player still has to wait to sign a contract. Olaha said: “I really want to play for SLNA, my teammates and the head coach are great, SLNA fans are very enthusiastic, everyone here loves me, I feel like I am in the same family so I decided to come back. I will try to play well, score many goals next season”.

"However, the head coach told me that the contract signing is still pending. And I will celebrate Tet with my friends in Vietnam. Here, I can feel the Vietnamese Tet atmosphere, receive lucky money and feel like a Vietnamese citizen," the striker born in 1996 shared.
In addition, during this trial period, Olaha also introduced to SLNA's leadership a very young friend from Nigeria. It is expected that in V.League 2019, SLNA's squad will have foreign player Olaha, a foreign striker on the attack line and a new foreign central defender./.
