Iker Casillas Thumps up for Musa Yahya after training with Porto

Published on: 22 November 2017

Former Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas has praised the abilities of former Tottenham Hotspur trainee Musa Yahaya who is now his teammate at FC Porto.

Casillas praised the 20 year old after a training session with the first team in the absence of senior players of the team who were away on international duty last week.

He listed the Nigerian forward as one of the top players in the youth set up of the team, who will in no time progress to the first team based on their performance with the B team.

Yahaya who was a star in the Nigeria U17 team that conquered the world at the 2013 World Youth Championship in the UAE is still waiting for his first team bow with the Portuguese giants.

However he has grown in leaps and bounds this season for the B team, where he now plays as a wingback as opposed to his preferred role as a wing forward, no thanks to the team system of play
