NPFL: Kano Pillars get Muhammad boost ahead Katsina United clash

Kano Pillars midfielder Aminu Muhammad has resumed training with the squad ahead of their upcoming Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) match against Katsina United. His return follows a spell of illness that kept him out since the start of the 2025‑26 NPFL season, and he rejoined the team’s sessions on Tuesday, providing a significant boost to preparations for the matchday three fixture.

The midfielder’s comeback is especially welcome for Kano Pillars head coach Evans Ogenyi, who is eager to secure his first win of the campaign. The team has collected only one point from their two opening matches, making the clash with Katsina United a crucial test. The encounter will be played at the Muhammadu Dikko Stadium in Katsina and is expected to be highly competitive.

With the season still in its early stages, clubs are striving to find their footing. Muhammad’s return strengthens Kano Pillars’ midfield and improves their chances of securing a victory. The NPFL is gaining momentum as several teams vie for top positions, and Kano Pillars—also known as Sai Masu Gida—enjoy a large following and high expectations.

The club’s management and coaching staff have been working diligently to ensure the players are well prepared for each match, and Muhammad’s availability is a positive development in that effort. As the match against Katsina United approaches, fans will be watching closely, hoping the team can translate the midfielder’s return into a win at the Muhammadu Dikko Stadium.
