I have given them the contact numbers of the Chairman and coach and I believe my club will make the best decision for me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI pray that I sign a professional contract in Europe because it\u2019s my dream.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nbalie started his top tier league football with FC Johansen with whom he won the FA Cup in 2016, and played in the CAF Champions League the following year before moving to East End Lions.<\/p>\n
