Duke is a very talented player. We played together in Abeokuta with concord. Wasiu janjase, Dapo fadoju, teberen odili Tony essien Lukman asaka. What a team we have in 1991/92. Guys this is Tayo
What an insight. So much politics and personal gains from our coaches and football administrators. Duke Udi was an outstanding player during his days in the national team.
So sad but in fairness to Bonfere Jo you would have given him problem if he had taken you to Atlanta. Coaches don't joke with disobedience. He was not just coaching you guys he was equally scouting for European clubs. You should have at least agreed to his terms first and see how things pan out. He respected you enough to have even come to your hotel room with his wife! He eventually won Nigeria a historic gold medal anyway. I hope upcoming players learn from this story.🙄
You said it all. Duke was a fantastic player but more aligned to the Etim Esin type character trait. Managers avoid such players, no matter how good you’ve been. It is for cohesion, unity and discipline. In life you learn to pick your fights and avoid career defining moments that could mean the difference between a successful Pro career and a guy everybody remembers with some regret for an unfulfilled potential. Great player through and through!
I'm not certain if you all grasp Duki's perspective here. Is the request for him to agree to something against his wishes and feel sad about it, simply to satisfy someone else's decision to exploit him for their own benefit?
Duki is a good player, talented.sometimes you need humility to achieve your goals irrespective of circumstances. Today he would have been recognized in Europe.
@@ELEGBETETV big time, jasper United then in onitsha was like watching Manutd vs mancity over 20,000 fans trooping into Rojenny Stadium Oba every league game, week to week out I remember them training in my secondary school, my biggest aspirations was to be like those guys. UCHE kalu, Emmanuel olisadebe, Lewis Aniweta, Uche Akubuike, Stanley Udenkwor, Emma Ekwueme, Ifeanyi Ekwueme, so many players jasper produced 💔 Chai! NIGERIA spoil no be small 😢
He was victimized by Bonfrere because he chose to return home to play for 3SC and be close to family instead of living in a small Dutch town playing for a small club like Bonfrere wanted. That doesn't mean he wasn't humble. He had good reasons. Bonfrere was the villain in this and he is known to never forgive.
Real vested interest, because I watched one of those games and saw this dashing winger weaving rings around defenders and I was asking: who is this fellow? Turned out it was Duke Udi.
You could see from his tone how let down he felt. This is one of the reality of life. He doesn't take away the fact that Duke Udi was an excellent and exceptional player.
I remember every match in the qualifiers to that Olympics. Duke Udi was the best player all through. We were all told that he was disrespectful and irresponsible and that's why he was dropped. You just imagine.
My beloved Stationary Stores Vs Concord FC Challenge Cup Q/Final in Enugu,this guy showed us pepper OMG.. It took a replay on a Monday for S/S to overcome.. Great baller by all standards…
I've enjoyed every part of Mr. Udi's interviews. It is refreshing to see us tell our stories ourselves. I'm also impressed with his memory... remembers teammates names, clubs (at the time), and opponents.
Duke Udi was a very good player, but really stubborn. I knew him very well when with 3SC before he went overseas and after he came back. I can say he was better than Okocha in midfield
Well, we still don't know why Duke didn't accept to play in Herenveen. The story isn't complete anyway. My take. But it's unfortunate that sometimes you make certain wrong decisions and you leave with them all through your life. Just get up and decide that you no do again and waka to Naija to 3SC. Why did he even let him organize the travel to Europe for him in the first place, and while there decide he didn't want to listen to the people that were his guide anylonger? Attitude might have played a very silly role in the actions that took him back to 3SC or was there a phantom agent in the picture too😂? Because players always feel they are smarter than everyone on the planet 😊. The story isn't complete game man! Who no go no know!
Since you know the complete story, you could have just shared! We still don't know why Bonfere wants him to play at Herenveen at all cost? That Duke even agreed to organize the trip and went to Herenveen means, to an extent, he respects the coach's guide. He went there, trained with them but preferred 3SC, apparently it is beyond money. Besides, he colleagues were playing in Holland now? Till date, players turn down "juicy offers" for non-football reasons. It could be family reasons, environment, culture or simply PERSONAL HAPPINESS among others. At that time, he was old enough to make his choice, not Bonfere forcing a club on him and punishing him for that. If he dropped him for performance, absolutely fine.
@@temitopejames8773 you are still not being fair on any investor with such a way of thinking. Duke, after saying all he did, he still didn't give a convincing reason why he decided he wanted to return to 3SC. If it was any of that reason you stated, he didn't mention any. Don't build walls for people when you know those are the kind of walls that destroyed the person and should be torn down. This story is similar to that of a boy I took to China from my Academy. He signed a deal in the Chinese league on loan. Thank God this one even decided to stay for a while. After a season the club didn't extend the loan or make an offer. We were smart to make him a 1 year residence so we could get other clubs interested in him. We did everything but his trials were negative. I told him to relax and I had not given up. He took his things one day in the middle of another trial, and said he was returning. I was caught up in Nigeria because of Covid 19. I told him he shouldn't make that mistake since it's difficult to enter back even with a residence at that time. He refused to listen and blackmailed me towards my partners. My Chinese partners decided again I should let the player go back. We paid for his ticket to Nigeria and I ended our relationship. He arrived in Nigeria and never came to my place for months. He was still shining anyway, clothes new and all that but for a little while only. I saw him after a long while at the Goal Project Abuja and confronted him since I was indebted because of his inactions. I told him to go home to his mother in the village and stay a while with her. He was still bragging. I told him they controlled him remotely and he became aggressive towards me. The truth was that, another person who wasn't experienced was behind the picture deceiving the guy that they could get him a team in another Chinese team, if he returns back to Nigeria and go back through someone else since he had his residence permit. They thought with his residence COVID-19 had no power over the residence. Unfortunately, it's now his 3rd year in Nigeria. At least his CV now says he played for a Chinese league team on loan from an Academy anyway. That's why I said there might have been a phantom behind Duke's attitude. We were football players and know certain decisions players stand on are made because of some other person's promise somewhere else. But the truth is that some people use different means to waste people's careers and Duke might have been spiritually made him dump his own fortune too. 'Homesick' is a silly reason some run back home too. Some players come for holidays and refuse to return because of high life at home. Nigerian and Brazilian players face this a lot of times and many have ruined their careers because of it. He isn't the only one that maybe pride pulled down. Several players have been let down because of pride. He should invest in fixing others through his past personal experiences and tell the young ones the truth so they don't do the same. He knows the truth and we don't. We have to resist several things, especially, if we want a job as a Pro player abroad. But they don't have to resist a huge opportunity your manager who takes you like a son has provided you (who gets such an opportunity na?). Some of the white managers don't have the contacts and just lie to the NFF bosses that they have contacts. But Bonfere Jo tried but something bit him with the actions of Duke and he bit Duke back his way. A wiser decision would have been to endure in the club for just a few weeks and then become a Golden Boy like those who went to Atlanta 96 and after that, you can take a different stand. No player comes abroad and immediately enjoys it. A lot happens especially initially.....
Not sure you listened to his story. He never even played for the Dutch club. He left Switzerland to go there and try out but didn't like it. Also, he may have just been done mentally with living in Europe. It happens.
The rot in the so called NFA or NFF dated back. Imagine a coach acting like ds all bcos of commission or what? I used to like d guy not knowing this is his other side. Na d football governing body I see blame sha
Duke was/is a proud guy back in the day…too arrogant. I wasn’t surprised that he didn’t go fat cos pride goes before a fall! I sabi am well for Jalisco Stadium! Oshodi born😅
Bros Na strong head do you wetin u de find come 3SC everybody beg u even Finidi and Kanu u no gree last last how 3SC help your career u for just go there manage one or two seasons use the fame for Atlanta japa go better club u do strong head c am now, no patience.The same players complaining are thesame players who lobby and bribe coaches and when it's no longer working for them they start to complain . The biggest problem of Nigerian football started in 94 when we won the AFCON some players became too big nobody can talk to them and some were jealous of others YEKINI became a victim of jealousy he was getting a lot of attention and some of the other teammates did not like it they became the Mafia in the team
This is one of the things we have to realize as Fifa stated , football is also business as you could see in todays betting deals , you wouldnt know what you spoilt for the coach by refusing that instruction he gave you ,
Stubbornness is his downfall. A fantastic player back then. His turning with the ball was delightful. He ought to have gone to Hereven FC and move up from there. He undid himself.
Was Duke an attacking midfielder or wide player? You want to convince me that Teslim Fatusi that directly took his place in the team as a substitute right winger to Tijani Babagida is better than Duke Udi?
Make una sef de obey coach, no matter how talented you are + youthful exuberance. Some of you guys didn't have proper managers to guide you. Yes coaches are petty and unforgiving, too bad you missed that historical chance .
Unfortunately, I disgree with those blaming Duke Udi. After living in Europe and playing in Switzerland like he had done, the choice to return home at that particular time could be to be close to friends and family. It is often a deeply personal one that nobody should interfere with. Maybe the players at Heerenveen were cold to him during try outs. Maybe the town seemed too small and lonely. Maybe he just wanted to return to Naija and contribute to 3SC. Some things are more important in life to other people. An unmotivated and unhappy player won't fit well into a club. So Bonfrere should have respected Duke's decision, selected the Olympic team based on merit, chosen Duke, and continued to mentor him. That's how you deal with strong-willed subordinates or proteges and win them over. Anyone here who blames Duke has a slave mentality and obviously doesn't have a mind of their own. Bonfrere is the villain here, not Duke. Bonfrere has a deplorably vindictive personality and will avenge every slight, real or imagined. He even later told Duke after the Olympics that he was welcome to the national team. So what was the initial punishment for? Just to show say "na me pass you"? Any leader who can't separate personal bias or hurt from ethical professional judgement is a dangerous person. They either become dictators or simply don't lead for long. That's like a professor failing a bright student for not running personal errands for him. The same Bonfrere publicly admitted on TV that he will never forgive or speak to Westerhof and even refused a proposed reconciliation with Westerhof. Tells you what a petty and unforgiving person he is.
Why on earth in 1996 would you choose 3Sc over Herenveen makes no sense! You were foreign based but chose to be home based with all the disadvantages? Unbelievable!You make your bed and you lie on it!l
If a white man visits you with his wife, that means the highest level of honor and trivializing it the way you did was unacceptable. Turning down a team like Henreven for an Ibadan club beats my imagination. Your salary will have been 10 times bigger than what you got in 3SC plus the good training facilities
@@jeraruoghenero5722 you no see as him excel well we'll go the Olympics?. What is the sense in running away from better opportunities to come and be an Ibadan local champion??? No be juju be that?
a coach told u to sign europe club u rejected, then u prefer 3sc Nigeria club, when the dream of all Africa players is to play in Europe, then u want him to take u along to Atlanta 96, i dont found any truth in this story, how much is 3sc given u at that time compare to Europe club
Oga in 1006 it was not the dream of every African, even today, there are loads of Egyptians, South Africans and others turning down European clubs, is the coach hired to be a football agent and run player racketeering? If that was a black coach that did such with his wife, would you say the same thing. Don't a player have a choice on his career again, have you checked if he wants to stay in Europe or not?
@@ELEGBETETV Oga ur answer shows that u dont know anything about football, and am still saying it that the dream of every Africa player is to play in Europe, this is the fact?
I don't know Duke Udi, He would've shine after Atlantic 96, if he was given chance to go with the team. It's like to me I'm just hearing his name for the first time.
Duke Udi is my lovely midfielder after J J, this supposed to be nutured to step into Okocha shoe, politics played him out. This guy is a mutitalented midfielder, the skill, dribbling, speed, accuracy and eyes for scoring goals. If you're a lazy striker, Duke will Sharpen you. Players like, Patrick Pascal, Isiak Awoyemi etc all of Shooting Stars Sport Club, in the 90s will never forget this guy. 3sc got him from Abiola Babes and was the most expensive player ever bought by 3sc. Late Skipo Taiwo, call him my inestimable jewel. No matter Tough the opponent you may be playing, Duke will be singled out. It's unfortunate they allow this guy waste away just like that. But Duke is too heady.
I don't know you in football. I don't believe your stories. You left Holland to Nigerian? No be Juju be that? Rejection supposed make you a serious player. If your a good player, Bonfere Jo could've selected you in the dreams team ( Atlanta 96) stop whining us
Duke is a very talented player. We played together in Abeokuta with concord. Wasiu janjase, Dapo fadoju, teberen odili Tony essien Lukman asaka. What a team we have in 1991/92. Guys this is Tayo
Very good narrator. I hope he is doing good in life.
What an insight. So much politics and personal gains from our coaches and football administrators. Duke Udi was an outstanding player during his days in the national team.
This time not politics but a white coach drop him because he turned him down by choosing 3sc

No be everybody go make the team na , someone must be dropped...atleast that team won .
Sentiments apart, but why would he refuse to play abroad in the first place, knowing full well even back then that foreign players were favored
The wanted a better future for him. No he is a poor man struggling to survive
Okocha and Oruma were better attacking midfielders though

3sc got him from Abiola Babes and was the most expensive player ever bought by 3sc.
Late Skipo Taiwo, call him my inestimable jewel.
No matter Tough the opponent you may be playing, Duke will be singled out.
It's unfortunate they allow this guy waste away just like that.
But Duke is too heady.
Doesn’t matter coach was right with the decision they won !
I don't know you in football. I don't believe your stories. You left Holland to Nigerian? No be Juju be that? Rejection supposed make you a serious player. If your a good player, Bonfere Jo could've selected you in the dreams team ( Atlanta 96) stop whining us
Imagine playing him after telling him you’re gonna drop him
