Flying Eagles gem Daga Daniel signs with Norwegian powerhouse FC Molde
Nigerian youth sensation Daniel Daga has taken a significant step forward in his burgeoning football career by securing a pre-contract agreement with Norwegian top-flight club, Molde FC. The 17-year-old midfield maestro, currently under the tutelage of FC One Rocket, will join the multiple-time Norwegian champions in January upon turning 18, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.
Daga's meteoric rise to prominence is undeniable. The youngster was a pivotal figure in the Flying Eagles squad that impressed at the 2023 U-20 World Cup, reaching the quarter-final stage. His subsequent loan spell at Nigerian giants Enyimba International saw him shine brightly in the middle of the park, showcasing exceptional talent and maturity beyond his years.
The move to Molde marks a new chapter for the highly-rated prospect. Previously linked with English Premier League side Watford FC, Daga visited the club's facilities and was presented with their development plans. However, the allure of the Norwegian giants and the opportunity to compete in the Eliteserien ultimately proved too tempting to resist.
With his technical ability, vision, and leadership qualities, Daga is widely regarded as one of the most promising young talents to emerge from Nigeria in recent times. His transfer to Molde is seen as a testament to his potential and a platform for him to further hone his skills under the guidance of experienced coaches in a competitive league.
