"For the ones we invited, they have been sweating it out in the training sessions with a view to impress me and my assistants and also know if they can fit into our playing patterns.

"The squad that played in the game against Lobi Stars were the ones I met on ground. I was quite satisfied with their performance but a lot still needs to be done if Sunshine Stars is to compete well this season.
"I hope to shop for strikers and defenders to give team the needed options at the back and off course attack."
Recall the Owena Waves lost its top scorer, Sikiru Alimi to Lobi Stars.
Alimi will be wearing the colours of the Makurdi side this season in the Nigeria Professional Football League and CAF Champions League.
