Former Villanova and recent West Chester United midfielder Oscar Umar didn’t have a lot of time to prepare for his professional debut with his new teammates.
Less than two weeks, in fact.
The Ghana native, who graduated from Villanova in 2015 and served as an assistant coach at Cabrini University last fall, made the most of his limited time with his new team and was inserted into the starting lineup on Saturday only days after his contract had been finalized.
“I was really excited with the fact that they trusted in me and gave me the opportunity,” Umar said.
