Nigeria Professional Football League side, Katsina United new signing, Eric Dufegha, has set a personal goal target of 10 in the coming 2017/2018 season.

Dufegha, who joined up from Remo Stars was on the payroll of Senegalese side, Teungeuth FC, a second tier league side.

The striker disclosed he quit the Senegalese side which he helped gain promotion following contractual breaches.

“I scored eight goals for Teungeuth. At Remo Stars, I scored six despite joining them in the mid season.

“Now I’m starting the season with Katsina United so I believe I can’t go below my last season achievement.

“As a striker, one will always push for bigger things and I believe 10 goals is the least I can score.

“It can be more than that but it cannot be less than 10”, Dufegha emphasized.

Before sojourning to Senegal, Dufegha had spells at Jigawa Golden Stars.
