Olisa Ndah’s agent, Mike Makab has revealed that persistent injuries scuttled his client’s ambition of playing abroad.
Ndah was linked with a move to Serie A and Major League Soccer (MLS) clubs last summer following his impressive displays for South African club, Orlando Pirates.
The 27-year-old has however failed to feature regularly for the Bucs in recent times as he struggled to stay on his feet.
Makab reckoned that the centre-back has been unlucky with injuries.
“He is very unfortunate. Every time Olisa seems to find his best footing, he ends up with these niggling injuries,” Makaan revealed to Soccer Laduma.
“Thank God (they are) not serious, but they are disruptive. They disrupt your rhythm as a footballer.
“Let me tell you: When Olisa has been playing and consistently doing well, we’ve had real interest from clubs outside our borders.”
Ndah was part of Super Eagles’ squad to the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.
