Nigeria’s Super Eagles forward, Akinkunmi Amoo has been celebrating his first league title with FC FC Copenhagen.
The winger, who joined the Danish giants from FC Hammarby earlier this year, won his first career title barely two years after becoming a professional.
The 19-year-old only made two appearances for the club and registered one assist, as his season was cut short due to an injury.
Amoo shared a picture of himself with his mother at the title celebration with his teammates and accompanied the post on social media with a long message.
The youngster, who got his first senior national team call up in March for the two-legged playoff against the Black Stars of Ghana for the 2022 World Cup, described the day as “emotional”.
The ex-U-17 star promised to give his best to the club and win more titles. The Nigerian also thanked all who have contributed to his success so far.
“I am looking forward to next season, to give my best for the badge, win titles and be part of the club history,” he wrote.
“I appreciate the fans for their love and kindness since I arrived at Copenhagen, I have enjoyed overwhelming love and support.
“I am honoured for the opportunity the coaching staff and the club management gave me to be part of this family, my teammates have been wonderful as well. Emotional day for me, living this moment with my Mother, I will cherish today all my life.
“To all my fans and friends, it’s the beginning of more success, thank you for the amazing support. Thank you for supporting your boy, all your prayers and words of encouragement, I am not taking them for granted. God bless you all.”
