Turkish league promotion delights Nigerian youngster

Nigerian and Giresun Sanayispor mercurial midfielder, Kafayat Shittu, has expressed her delight following her side’s promotion to the Turkish Women Super League.

Kaffy stated this during a chat with sports journalists on Saturday in Ilorin, Kwara state.

Giresun Sanayispor lost the final playoff game to Yuksekova by a lone goal but secured their first ever promotion to the Super League despite the defeat.

She has been outstanding for her side throughout the season with scintillating performance.

“I’m happy to be among the players that qualify the team for promotion, this is the first time and I’m happy to be part of the achievement,” she said.

The former Moje Queens midfielder also hailed her teammates and the technical crew for achieving the great feat.

Giresun Sanayispor ended the playoffs season in second position behind Yuksekova who emerged the champions of the Turkish Women’s Football League play-off.
