The head coach of the team, Fidelis Ilechukwu spoke about his teams readiness ahead of the 2016/17 Nigerian top flight season stating that Gold Cup tourney will enhance his sides performance.
“Every serious team will look for away to participate in a pre-season tournament hence the reason for our participation in this year’s Gold Cup event.
“We have some new players in our team who were impressive during our screening exercise. We want to use this event to size them and the entire team up as we continue preparation for the forth coming leageu season.
“One good thing about pre-season tournament is that it affords you the opportunity to see your team lapses and work on them before the beginning of a new football season and we have thought it wise to take advantage of it” Ilechukwu told mountaintopfc.com
MFM FC will begin their quest in the 10-day soccer fiesta by 4pm on Friday against Sunshine Stars FC at the Otunba Dipo Dina International Stadium.
