Midfielder, Lukman Haruna, captained the Golden Eaglets to a third triumph at the U-17 World Cup in 2007. The 31-year-old, who also featured at the 2009 U-20 World Cup and the 2010 World Cup in South Africa

Of course, it was. It’s every player’s dream and I had that experience. Players that never played at the World Cup are never fulfilled. But I’m lucky to be part of the team. It was a great moment and a good feeling. It’s the dream of every player to represent their country at the World Cup. I was very fortunate to make the squad. I played two games, though we lost those matches, it remains a fulfilling moment for me.

Do you regret not playing in Europe’s top leagues like the Premier League, Serie A or the Spanish LaLiga? Of course, I do regret that. and I’m not always happy when I remember that. I received an offer from Arsenal while I was playing for Monaco then but they turned down the offer. And after the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, Inter Milan came calling, but Dynamo Kiev also rejected the deal. Bordeaux and Olympiakos also made offers but they were all declined by Dynamo Kiev then as well. I got stuck there for a while due to injuries before I fought my way back. But I had good times at the club.
