Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah has reportedly opened talks to buy an unnamed Spanish or Israeli club, his top aide has disclosed.
According to a Scorenigeria.com.ng report, Ubah who owns FC Ifeanyiubah, a Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) side, is mulling owning a club in either Israel or Spain and has begun his quest by opening buy-over talks with the clubs.
If and when the deal eventually sees the light of success, the European club would serve as destination for young football talents from Nigeria, especially from his much cherished ‘One Family, One Footballer’ project.
Ifeanyi Ubah, who doubles as chairman of Anambra State Football Association and whose club, FC Ifeanyiubah, have struck a partnership deal with Premier League side, West Ham United, has said football is his second love and would stop at nothing in seeing his football dream through.
Ikechukwu Emeka Onyia, Special Assistant to Ifeanyi Ubah on Media, confirmed this in Onitsha during an ABS television sports programme, Sports In The Mix.
“Dr Ifeanyiubah is trying to buy a club in Israel or Spain”, Onyia said.
“Of course, when the deal eventually gets through, some of the young players who will be discovered from the ‘one family, one footballer’ programme will have somewhere in Europe to horne their career.
Ifeanyiubah’s club, FC Ifeanyiubah, became the first club from Anambra State to win the Federation Cup since the state was created in 1991 when they won the 2016 Federation Cup at the expense of Nasarawa United.
