Nurudeen Aweroro is refusing to take the spotlight, choosing instead to shine it entirely on his squad after guiding Shooting Stars back to the African continent. The Oluyole Warriors wrapped up their Nigeria Premier Football League campaign by clinching a historic third-place finish, ending a painful two-decade absence from continental football.
Reflecting on the monumental achievement , the technical adviser pushed all the praise toward his players and backroom staff, emphasizing that their dedication was the real driving force behind the team’s top-three finish.
Aweroro expressed deep gratitude for the opportunity to lead the legendary club, giving credit to God and acknowledging the unwavering support of Taiwo Lekan-Salami, whose belief in his vision proved crucial throughout the grueling season.
Downplaying his own tactical influence, the tactician pointed out that the real magic happened through the sheer grit and sacrifice of the players on the pitch, supported by the relentless, behind-the-scenes efforts of his staff. He closed by urging both the public and football pundits to overwhelm the team with the appreciation they earned, noting that these boys and the technical crew deserve every bit of the celebration and positive headlines coming their way.
