- From jumping the fence of local stadiums in order to catch a glimpse of his idol Rashidi Yekini to playing alongside the legend himself, Daniel Amokachi's story is one of courage both on and off the field. His popularity with the fans stemmed from his never-say-die attitude and a style of play that sent shivers down the spine of opponents. Today, for the first time ever, Amokachi sits down to share the intimate details of the injury that completely derailed his promising career in the '90s, forcing him to retire at the prime age of 28 years old.

I'm so glad he cleared the air on Yekini
Daniel is my favorite football player. With love from Russia...
Greetings from Ghana. He is my favourite 😍 Nigerian player
One of my idols in Nigerian football USA '94 and Atlanta '96.
One of the Best Nigerian football has produced 👏 👌 🙌. Respect 🙏 this guy was gifted talented footballer
Thanks Daniel....
DIC bees, Ranchers 🐝, BCC of Gboko, El Kanemi of Maiduguri, UNTC....The Nigeria we all miss, thanks for the memories
One of the greatest of all time
This is one that is a legend. One of the best of the best in Africa.
Dan Da Bull came , saw, conquered , true talent from God given to Nigeria, Respect.
The BULL! the best set of super eagles Nigeria ever had
This is amazing. Finally the pioneers are getting the spotlight. Please don't stop this. I'm subscribing
Still one of the 2 best nigerian players ever
No doubt.
Excellent videos. I wonder why nobody has done this with all Nigerian players once they retire.
This is classic with a touch of excellence. It made me want more from the legendary "AMO 14" da Bull. His style of play was fully patriotic and committed 100%. I am happy his relationship with Yekini was x-rayed and his answer was purely true especially when you hear a man add a touch of local dialect to his speech you should feel his sincerity. What endeared me to him was his stubbornness and now the baba is calmer. Life is really time and season...... thanks for this wonderful new year piece. Standing by for unraveling of more especially my childhood heros Ben Iroha and CELESTINE BABAYARO. Happy new year people.

I tried watching, TH-cam says video is not available. I don't want to miss this.
Hello Olushola, not sure why TH-cam is saying this video isn't available because it is. Do you want to change browsers and try again, perhaps.
Nice videos.
Very very nice. How'd you get an interview with the bull? I'm impressed. Could you do one of Jay Jay, I love him to bits.
