Imoh Ezekiel Eyes Return to Standard Liège After Qatar Stint
After just six months in Qatar, Imoh Ezekiel is reportedly eager to return to Europe, with a potential loan move to Standard Liège on the table. The news, first reported by Het Nieuwsblad, indicates that the Nigerian striker’s agent is already in discussions with Standard’s management.
Currently playing for Al Arabi, Ezekiel has netted six goals in 15 matches, but the level of competition in the Qatari league has not satisfied the 20-year-old. His desire to return to a more competitive footballing environment has prompted talks of a temporary move back to Belgium.
Ezekiel previously shone with Standard Liège between January 2012 and July 2014, forming a dynamic duo with Michy Batshuayi and tallying 32 goals in 91 matches. His potential return could bolster Standard’s attacking options as they push for domestic success in the second half of the season.
