JOSEPH YOBO: I Am Ready To Play Against AEL
Published: November 07, 2012
Joseph Yobo has denied reports in a section of the Turkish media that suggested he had ruled himself out of Thursday's Europa League clash against Cypriot club AEL Limassol because he needed more therapy to overcome his latest injury setback.
''These claims are ridiculous, absolutely not true. Currently, there is no problem, I'm ready to play. AEL Limassol match, I'll play. Completely overcome my injury,'' the defender was quoted as saying by futboldabugun.com.
The Nigeria skipper has started Turkish lessons to enable him communicate better with his teammates and the technical staff.
''Turkish is very difficult. Lessons are hard. But there's breakthrough, progress is also good. I'm trying to learn. I'm sure going to get way on this subject,''says Yobo to the Turkish website.
In conclusion, Joseph Yobo picked Fenerbahçe's Volkan Demirel as the best goalkeeper in the world, ahead of Iker Casillas and Buffon.
