Returnee Bello Kofarmata of Kano Pillars has set his sights
at claiming the highest goal scorers crown at the end of the
current season. Bello who left the country at the end of last
season for greener pasture in Norway rejoined the team last
week and is rearing to go as the league defending champions
struggle to catch up with the top contenders in the league
table.
Leaguemania learnt that the dark skinned workaholic returned
to the country not because of his inability to impress club
officials abroad, but because of the wheather which had a
negative effect on his well being.
He said the experience he gained while in Norway would help
him score more goals and help his club retain the trophy they
won last season.
“I had a tough time coping with the weather in Norway.
I will consider travelling out for trial closed at least for
now, because the weather out there was unfavourable.
“In fact, I could not get to half of what I give to
Kano Pillars in the Premier League.
I would have dumped Kano Pillars on my return because several
clubs including Enyimba and Bayelsa United were keen on signing
me, but I had to rejoin Pillars to contribute my own quota
towards their
CAF Champions League campaign.
“I might be going back to Europe by January if all arrangements
works perfectly, and there will be no excuse of cold or hot
weather.
