Lokosa: Eunisell top scorer award pushed me to Espérance

Former Kano Pillars FC striker, Junior Lokosa is grateful to Eunisell for introducing Eunisell Boot Award which he became the inaugural winner after bagging 19 goals in the Nigeria Professional Football League 2017/2018 season to go home with a trophy and a cheque of N3.8 million – N200,000 a goal.

The media hype around Lokosa’s award caught the attention of African Champions, Tunisia’s Esperance Sportive, who recently signed the Kano Pillars star.

Incidentally, Lokosa had previously travelled to China and Norway seeking a club, but walked away without securing a deal.

“It was only after the Eunisell Boot award had been made along with all the publicity, that my career turned a corner.

“There can be no doubt that the award will spur young, aspiring players and Nigerian league footballers to perform at a much higher level – the rewards are real”, Lokosa said.
