Lagos State University’s Abiola Saka says he wants to emulate the career of Italy and Juventus icon Gianluigi Buffon.
Despite his team losing 2-0 to OAU Giants in Wednesday’s game thanks to Opeyemi Adeyemi’s double, the goalkeeper earned rave reviews for his performance.
In the tension-soaked encounter, he made a string of superb saves to keep the scoreline respectable ahead of the return leg in Lagos.
In a chat with Goal after his team’s defeat, Saka claims he is eager to enjoy the same kind of successes as Italy’s World Cup winner and record cap-holder.
