As Seun Akanji begins a new chapter with Norwegian club Lillestrøm SK, his younger brother, Akanji Jibola, has declared that he is determined to carve out his own identity in football and follow his own path to success.

Sports247 reports that both brothers began their football journey at Femmco Football Club, where they developed their talents before Seun moved to Beyond Limits and later Sporting Lagos FC, earning a permanent transfer to Lillestrøm SK on a four-year contract after helping Sporting Lagos win the Nigeria National League (NNL) title and secure promotion to the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL).

Speaking exclusively to Sports247, Jibola acknowledged that although he and his elder brother operate on the same flank, he possesses a different style of play.

“We play on the same wing, but I am more different and superior,” Jibola said confidently.

The promising youngster expressed belief in his abilities, insisting that hard work and patience will eventually earn him his own breakthrough.

“I am confident and hardworking towards my future ambition. I believe in myself, and with time my moment of glory will come.”

Jibola also praised Seun’s influence on the younger players at Femmco Football Club, revealing that his brother’s progress to European football has become a source of inspiration within the team.

According to him, Seun’s movement and commitment have motivated the squad, a mentality that was evident during Femmco FC’s victory in the Adaamasunle U-15 Championship semi-final.

With Seun already making headlines in Europe, Jibola is determined to write his own success story. His confidence, ambition, and commitment to continuous improvement underline the growing reputation of Femmco Football Club as a breeding ground for young talents capable of competing at the highest level.

As another exciting prospect emerging from the club’s youth system, Akanji Jibola will be hoping to follow in his brother’s footsteps while creating a legacy that is uniquely his own.
