Nigerian
striker, Victor Emenayo is currently the butt of jokes in the
Azerbaijan media following his move to the county's top division side,
Shahdagh Qusar FK.
23-year-old Nigerian striker, Victor Emenayo who was recently
signed by Azerbaijani top division side, Shahdagh Qusar FK, has been
turned to an object of mockery for reportedly being 17 times older than
the age that is on his international passport.
According to a report by Vanguard
newspaper, the international passport alleges that the player who has
already made his debut for his new side, was born in 1993, but search on
the internet about the striker who has played in Uganda for the best
part of his career shows, he should be 28-years-old judging by his
official age before his move to Shahdagh Qusar.
The shocking revelation instantly turned the Nigerian player to a
subject of ridicule by social media users in Azerbaijan with online
users also joining in, due to the discrepancies in the documents about
the age of the player, stating that he indeed looks well above 40 years
old.
It was gathered from online sources that the striker is reportedly
older in appearance than the coach of the team, Adil Mahmudov, according
to the media in Azerbaijan.
The Nigerian or his club are yet to respond to the allegations.
