After his heroics in the Europa Conference League in which he scored the fastest hattrick in the history of the competition, KAA Gent’s Nigeria star, Gift Orban has become the
proverbial gold fish with no hiding place. His league scoring form of 20 goals in 22 matches speaks volumes to the kind of marksman he is proving be.

Meanwhile, German Bundesliga campaigners Bayer 04 Leverkusen have endured a disappointing season due to unforeseen challenges in the striker department and to address their pressing issue, Leverkusen have set their sights on Orban. Gent reportedly want €50 million for Orban, a fee only a few outside of Europe’s heavyweights can afford.
With the team’s sights set on success, Orban’s talent and scoring ability offer hope for a brighter future. However, fate intervened when he moved to Togo for better opportunities. It was here that he caught the attention of renowned Nigerian scout Ola Fowler, who spotted Orban during a trials program in Lome.
The Bison FC academy product needed little time to adapt to life in Norway, and soon he became a nightmare to defenders in the country.
