“I’ve already been in the wider squad before. If we win promotion, maybe I’ll get that chance again.

“We want to be back in the first league—and I believe we can do it.”

“Our keeper didn’t show up for training, so the coach told me to go in goal. I conceded a few, but I loved it.”

This season, Dukla are top of Slovakia’s second tier—unbeaten, with Yakubu conceding just ten goals in fourteen games.
