The Betway Premiership is expected to be the next destination for Nigerian central midfielder Papa Daniel Mustapha following his first call-up to the senior team last month.
Mustapha has emerged as a key player in his first season with Niger Tornadoes in the Nigerian Premier Football League.

Such has been his rise that besides featuring in the CHAN squad, he has since been able to get recognition for the national team proper and was on the bench for the Super Eagles’ FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Rwanda and Zimbabwe in March.
The 23-year-old has previously played for Turkish club Adanaspor and now has his sights set on the Betway Premiership, which is already home to Super Eagles first choice Stanley Nwabali.
Mustapha has caught the eye with his industrious midfield play and ability to score having had three goals to his name this season for Tornadoes.

Abbie Rasimphi of Moscow Africa Renewal Project confirms that work is already underway to place Mustapha in the PSL next season.
Mustapha started out with Fackson Academy in Lagos before moving to Turkey where he lasted a season before moving back to Nigeria where he played for Sporting before joining Tornadoes.
