Kaye Iyowuna Furo, Son of Former Super Eagles Defender Furo Iyenemi, Signs Professional Contract with Club Brugge.
Kaye Iyowuna Furo, the 17-year-old son of former Super Eagles defender Furo Iyenemi, has taken a significant step in his footballing career by signing his first professional contract with Belgian side, Club Brugge as revealed by Nigerian Sports Journalist Oma Akatugba. The promising centre-forward, born to a Belgian mother, has shown immense potential, attracting attention from top European clubs.
Before committing to Club Brugge, Kaye was pursued by several high-profile clubs, including Juventus and AC Milan. However, his father, Furo Iyenemi, a seasoned former footballer, believed it was better for his son to continue developing in Belgium before making a major leap abroad. This decision underscores Furo’s understanding of the importance of nurturing young talent carefully, drawing from his extensive experience in the sport.
Adding to the footballing legacy, Kaye’s sister, Tracy Iyowuna Furo, is also making her mark in the sport. She recently signed with Zulte Waregem, further highlighting the family’s deep-rooted connection to football.
This move to Club Brugge is expected to be a pivotal moment in Kaye’s burgeoning career, as he embarks on his journey to make a name for himself in European football, much like his father did during his playing days.
