Investing In Excellence: Franklin Oluwasegun Currie Calls On Partners To Build Kiraa Football Academy’s Stadium In Ogun State
Franklin Oluwasegun Currie, the visionary Chairman and President of Kiraa Football Club, has embarked on an ambitious project to revolutionize football in Nigeria.
The club has initiated the construction of a world-class stadium and football academy in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State. At the groundbreaking ceremony, Currie highlighted the critical role of infrastructure in football development.
“To invest in football, you need infrastructure. That is the only way to establish a good system because players need proper welfare,” he stated.
In a bold move to amplify the project’s impact, Currie is calling on foreign investors and partners who recognize the profitability of football as a business to join him in this transformative endeavor. “Football is not just a sport; it is a lucrative global business.
Together, we can build something extraordinary—an institution that nurtures talent and delivers significant returns,” Currie emphasized.
Stadium and Academy Plan:
The modern stadium, with a seating capacity of 15,000, is designed to be a hub of sporting excellence. Its standout features include:
Main Pitch: A FIFA-standard natural grass pitch, equipped with advanced drainage and floodlighting systems for world-class matches.
Spectator Zones: Well-structured seating areas with VIP lounges, media sections, and family zones to accommodate diverse audiences.
Player Amenities: Modern locker rooms, cutting-edge physiotherapy centers, and recovery pools to ensure peak performance and welfare.
Training Pitches: Two auxiliary training grounds to support rigorous and uninterrupted sessions.
The adjoining football academy is tailored to foster grassroots talent while ensuring a holistic approach to development. Key features include:
Educational Facilities: Classrooms for academic learning to provide young players with balanced growth.
Residential Areas: Secure, modern dormitories for up to 100 budding athletes.
Recreational Spaces: A gym, game rooms, and wellness centers to encourage physical and mental well-being.
With an expected completion timeline of two years, Currie’s vision aims to not only raise football standards in Ogun State but also establish Kiraa Football Club as a global brand.
“This is more than just building a stadium; it’s about creating a legacy. I invite visionary investors to partner with us in shaping the future of football in Nigeria,” Currie concluded passionately.
