A message from Austin Bold FC Chairman Bobby Epstein




Promise was an unused substitute as the USL Championship side secured a 2-1 away victory at Portland Timbers on Tuesday.

He captained Nigeria to the 2003 Fifa U17 World Cup held in Finland, as well as the 2005 Fifa U20 World Cup in the Netherlands where the Flying Eagles were runners-up to Argentina.

At the 2008 Olympics, he played a key role in Nigeria’s silver medal finish in Beijing – scoring in the 2-1 triumph over the United States in the group stage.

Promise made his senior national team debut in 2009, but only played three games and scored one goal.

Before passing away, he had several stints across Turkey, Saudi Arabia and the United States.
