Belgium: Nigerian sensation Orban admits Premier League dream

KAA Gent forward, Gift Orban has said he will love to play in the English Premier League in future.

The 20-year-old moved to Gent from Norwegian second division club, Staebek in January.

Orban has however hit the headlines for his superlative displays for the Belgian Pro League club.

The young striker scored four goals in Gent’s 6-2 rout of Zulte Waregem last weekend.

The Nigerian was the first Gent player to achieve the feat this century.

Overall, Orban has netted nine times in eight appearances since his arrival at Gent.

He reckoned the need to work harder to achieve his dream of playing in the English top-flight.

“My level has to be even higher if I ever want to play in the Premier League. There is still a lot of work to be done” the player told Gent’s official website.

Orban won the Player and Goal of the Month awards in Belgium last month.
