SJK’s July Monthly Talent is a 19-year-old Kingsley Ofori, and he will have access to a new Toyota Corolla Hybrid passenger car donated by Provincial Car for a month. Congratulations Kingsley!
The player of the month was selected by Richard Dorman, Technical Director of Sports at SJK, and Brian Page, Director of SJK Academy.
"I thought this was a pretty difficult choice again, as we have several players that we could have chosen as the Talent of the Month in July. But Kingsley Ofori definitely deserves this. "
"His performances have been good and he has scored important goals for us. At the same time, Ofori has already been able to train according to the representative team, says Brian Page, Director of the SJK Academy "
"Ofori is not only good in the direction of attack, but he does a lot of work to help the defense. He squeezes well, makes building the game difficult for the opponent and he blocks the balls. Ofori helps with both midfield and defense by doing, and sometimes fetches the ball from below as well."
"I’ve really been taken in by how hard he works for the whole team. Thanks to his work, we are able to defend from a high and active level."
Every month, SJK's partner Maakunnan Auto donates a car for a month's talent. The car is the new Toyota Corolla Hybrid and is equipped with all the delicacies as well as the SJK and Maakunnan Auto logos.
"- I think this is a very nice handshake from our sponsor. This is of great importance to the boys, and this is a great tribute to them for the hard work they do. They also take care of sleep, nutrition, and fitness in their spare time, and that work isn’t just what people see in games. "
"We coaches see those sacrifices in what they do and how hard they commit. That’s why I think it’s great to be noticed by the club and sponsors in this way, says Brian Page. "
Ofori got the car on Tuesday morning because on Monday he was still with the SJK Academy in Jyväskylä, where the tenth goal of the season was scored for JJK's network.
