Former Nigerian international John Utaka has praised Super Eagles striker Cyriel Dessers for his finishing ability, describing the Rangers forward as a player who knows how to make the most of opportunities in front of goal.
Utaka’s comments come after Dessers continued to attract attention for his performances at club level, where his goals have made him an important attacking option.
The former Nigeria striker believes the Rangers forward possesses the qualities required of a reliable finisher and can continue to develop his game.
Softfootball understands that Dessers has established himself as one of the prominent Nigerian forwards playing in Europe, particularly through his consistent involvement in Rangers’ attacking setup. His ability to find scoring positions has made him a regular threat to opposing defenses.
Utaka believes the striker should continue working on his overall game while retaining the confidence that has helped him find the back of the net.
He also noted that good finishing remains an important quality for any forward hoping to succeed at the highest level, saying:
Dessers is a good finisher. He knows where the goal is and has shown that he can take his chances when they come.
Dessers will now be looking to maintain his form and use his experience to contribute even more for both Rangers and the Super Eagles. His goalscoring record could also play an important role in Nigeria’s plans going forward.
