“They had the wrong information”: Norwegian agent explains why Jerome Philip is in Norway, not New York

“I’m not pointing any fingers,” says Atta Aneke, on the phone from Norway. “They acted in good faith, just as we acted in good faith,” he continues, “They just had the wrong information and dealt with the wrong people.”

“They” in this instance refers to the New York Red Bulls and Stellar Group player agent Damani Ralph. On January 23, 2018, Ralph provided Once A Metro with a detailed account of his effort to arrange the transfer of teenage talent Jerome Philip from a club in Nigeria - Gee-Lec FC - to RBNY.
