Gift Orban shares gym photos during holiday
Nigerian striker Gift Orban who made a high-profile move from KAA Gent to Olympique Lyonnais, has taken to social media to remind fans and critics of his potential.
Orban, once a prolific goal-scorer in the Belgian Jupiler Pro League, has had a challenging transition to Ligue 1, scoring only three goals in 16 appearances for Lyon. This is a stark contrast to his impressive record of 32 goals and two assists in 52 matches for Gent.
The 21-year-old’s performance dip has seen him slip from the radar of many football fans, including followers of Nigeria’s national team, the Super Eagles.
However, Orban seems determined to reclaim his standing. Recently, he posted a series of photographs on his social media platforms, highlighting his commitment to maintaining peak physical condition through private training sessions both in the gym and on the pitch.
These images suggest that he is putting in extra work to regain his form and goal-scoring touch.
Orban’s social media posts also included pictures of him enjoying downtime at the beach, hinting at a balanced approach to his professional and personal life.
This calculated move appears to be aimed at refreshing the memories of fans, pundits, and national team selectors about his explosive talent that once took the Belgian league by storm and earned him a move to one of France’s biggest clubs.
Despite his struggles in his debut season for Lyon, Orban’s latest posts suggest that he is not content to fade into obscurity and is working hard to adapt to the demands of Ligue 1.
