Enyimba almost set for Rahimo ahead CAF Champions League

Enyimba head coach, Usman And’Allah has stated that the People’s Elephant is taking shape ahead of their CAF Champions League preliminary round, first leg encounter in Burkina Faso.

The last season’s league Champions have made series of new acquisitions to show their seriousness towards making a meaningful impact in Africa after they made it to the semi-final of the 2018 CAF Confederation Cup competition.
And’Allah who returned from his brief holiday in France told SportingLife that he is not perturbed by the lack of sufficient time for the build-up to the first leg game in Ouagadougou and that he is relying majorly on the old players in the team for the away game.
“We are taking our preparations seriously and have shown that with the players that we have acquired, ” And’Allah told SportingLife.
“We are not scared that we won’t have enough time to blend the new players with the old ones but we are hoping to make use of majorly our retained players while a few that have adjusted to put philosophy will be picked from the new players we bought. We are going to give a good account of ourselves in Burkina Faso before the return leg.”
