'Drogba, Lampard, Ronaldo Have Played Here' - Bournemouth Loanee Ofoborh On Facing Portsmouth Away
Former Nigeria U20 international Nnamdi Ofoborh has reflected on his successful loan spell at EFL League One club Wycombe Wanderers.

The Bournemouth-owned central midfielder revealed that he cherished playing on the big stage and cited the away match at Portsmouth,who used to be a Premier League team until 2010 when they were demoted.

Ofoborh pointed out the likes of Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard visited Fratton Park during their playing days.

"One thing I say to my friends is that everyone likes playing at home, I do too, but I love games away. I like being the villain and spoiling the party," Ofoborh said to Bournemouth's official webpage.

"Playing at Pompey this season, the tunnel’s really narrow and it’s such a hostile environment, as we came out there were 20,000 fans and that is exactly what I’ve been dreaming of doing.

"Pompey are not a small team, in my eyes they’re still a Premier League team, I was walking out thinking ‘Drogba’s played here, Lampard and Ronaldo have played here’."

The 20-year-old Ofoborh made 22 appearances in all competitions for Wycombe Wanderers, scoring once - his first professional goal - against MK Dons in the EFL Trophy.
