In an interview with the Graphic Sports, Coach Nurudeen, who was recently appointed as the coach of the national under-18 side, emphasised FC Samartex's determination to compete in the CAF competition.

He emphasised that nothing would deter them from seizing the opportunity to represent the country on the continental stage.

 

Acknowledging the challenges inherent in CAF competitions, Coach Nurudeen stressed the need to bolster their squad with experienced players to navigate the rigorous tournament. 

The coach cited Dreams FC's exemplary performance in the competition this season as a benchmark for FC Samartex to emulate, expressing confidence in the support from management and the board of directors.

Drawing inspiration from Dreams FC's unexpected success, Coach Nurudeen emphasised the importance of determination, commitment and organisational support in achieving their goals. 

He also highlighted the financial benefits of participation, noting that it would serve as a platform to showcase their players to foreign clubs, potentially generating revenue for the club.
