Rangers FC have presented an insurance benefit worth N20m to the family of their late player, Ifeanyi George.

The Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) side made the presentation on Tuesday to Sunday George, a brother to the late footballer.

While thanking the management of the club for the gesture, Sunday described it as novel, expressing hope that it will inspire other clubs to follow the same path.

“This has never happened before in Nigerian football,” Sunday George said. “But Ifeanyi has sacrificed himself for this; I definitely know this is going to be a stepping stone for other clubs to take a step.”

Also speaking during the event, the head coach of Rangers FC, Salisu Yusuf, said the demise of the footballer is a sad development.

According to him, “He (Ifeanyi) had done very well. He played the best football in his life. We hoped that at the end of the season he would have a new contract.”

Coach Salisu added that “He did very well but it (his death), was just very sad.”

Ifeanyi George and Emmanuel Ogbu died on Sunday, March 22nd in a motor accident while travelling to Lagos State. (Channels TV)
