Rapper Omoniyi Temidayo Raphael aka Zlatan Ibile has pleaded for a deal by any of the Saudi Arabia football clubs.

Zlatan decided to pursue a career in music after graduating from secondary school. He emerged winner of the 2014 edition of the “One Mic campus tour” music competition in Abeokuta, Ogun State capital at 19.

He gained recognition in the music industry after releasing the Olamide-assisted track “My Body” in 2017.

However, the Afrobeats artiste in 2020 revealed his dream wasn’t to become a musician but a footballer just like Zlatan Ibrahimović. But since it didn’t turn out that way, he decided to adopt the first name of the Swedish player as his stage name.

A few days ago, he was spotted with colleagues, Mayorkun and Skiibii with a couple of other guys honing their football skills on the pitch of Barcelona’s training facility.

The video captured the music stars extremely exhausted as they ran off to the side of the field to catch their breath after only playing for ten minutes.

Reiterating his love for football, coupled with the mega deals being struck by footballers like Portugal’sCristiano Ronaldo who joined Al Nassr, and just recently, N’Golo Kanté who got signed to Al-Ittihad, the ‘Zanku’ crooner begged to also be given a deal.

“Make one Saudi club give me deal na,” he wrote.
