Dedevbo fortifies Falconets with Ajibade, Catherine

Nigeria’s U-20 women’s team head coach, Peter Dedevbo has handed Flamingoes’ duo, Rasheedat Ajibade and Catherine Kenneth invitations to the side ahead of the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Papua New Guinea.

The duo participated in the side futile campaign at the on-going FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup in Jordan.

Ajibade who made her second appearances at the world cadet championship plays for FC Robo while Kenneth, a central defender with Rivers Angels have already joined the rest of other invited Falconets players at their Abuja camp.

“I watched Rasheedat and Catherine during their tournament and I liked the way they played.

“I think they did very well despite the Flamingoes’ early exit at the World Cup. I intend to take a closer look at them during training sessions because I believe that they can fit into my plans for the World Cup,” said Dedevbo to thenff.com.
