A yet-to-be-identified young player collapsed at Maracana Stadium in Ajegunle, Lagos State, on Sunday after a match held as part of a scouting programme hosted by the Shazam Football Team.
According to a witness at the scene, who was part of the programme but pleaded for anonymity, the incident occurred on Sunday around 9:45 am on the pitch following the end of the game.
The witness, via a WhatsApp text to our correspondent on Sunday, wrote, “The player slumped at Maracana Stadium, Ajegunle after the end of the match of a scouting programme. He was rushed to the hospital.”
The scouting event was organised by the Shazam Football Team based in Mile 2 and attracted several young talents hoping to be scouted.
As of the time the player was being rushed to the hospital, he is seen (in the video) to be alive but not responsive.
There is no further information yet on the condition of the player, as the hospital’s response is awaited.
