I want to repay $2million Al Ahly paid for me – Junior Ajayi

Junior Ajayi has said he is trying his best to justify the $2million, Egyptian club Al Ahly paid for him. Ajayi joined Al Ahly on a four-year deal from Tunisian side CS Sfaxie. The Nigerian striker scored his fourth goal for the club on Sunday.

“I need to justify the huge amount of money spent on me by the Egyptian club,” he told AfricanFootball.

“So, I thank God I am doing well by scoring goals, that is the main reason why I was bought.”

“I can still do more by scoring many goals for my club, what I need is just to remain focus.”

He added: “I am really enjoying my time in the Egyptian league, which is a good league with very good structure and organisation and above all the fans who troop to the stadium to watch the matches are incredible.”

“The support and love for the game is something else.

“I have played in the Nigeria league, the league in Tunisia and now I am featuring in the Egyptian league. The leagues across Africa have really grown.”
