Rasheedat Ajibade names star-studded squad in her FIFA Five-a-side

Nigeria striker Rasheedat Ajibade has named a solid five-a-side squad, including Brazil legend and six-time World Player of the Year Marta da Silva as well as 2022 Ballon d’Or winner Alexia Putellas of Barcelona.

The Atletico Madrid star went on to include Lyon and France defender Wendie Renard in her team, as well as her fellow Super Falcons teammates – Chiamaka Nnadozie and Asisat Oshoala.

“I would start with Chiamaka Nnadozie in goal because she is amazing, beautiful and has been making great saves,” the former Robo Queens captain told FIFA.

“And I would have Wendie Renard pairing up with her, I think they would make a very good pair.

“I would have Alexia Putellas in the middle because she is amazing and a good passer. She understands the game, she could read a game very well. And most importantly she is one of the best players in the world right now

“If I would have players upfront, I would have Marta da Silva the Brazilian maestro, the former best player in the world, and I would have Asisat Oshoala so, she will just be a finisher for us.”

Before the yuletide break, Ajibade has four goals for Atletico this season and will be back in action against Granadilla Tenerife on January 8.
