Norwegian giants Avaldsnes have secured the services of Rasheedat Ajibade from Nigeria Women Premier League side FC Robo Queens on a two-year deal.

Having finished ninth in the Toposerien log last season, coach Lena Tyriberget bolstered her squad with the highly rated 19-year-old versatile forward's signing ahead of the 2018-19 season.

"When you look at her age and her merits - been central to the U20 team and the A national team, most recently in the Africa championship that Nigeria and Rasheedat won,” said club’s coach Lena Tyriberget on Wednesday.

"You realize that Rasheedat is a very promising Nigerian national team player. As a player type, she is typically either 8s or 10s on the pitch.

"She is good with ball, is forward-looking in the game and has good drive. She is a player for the future. We look forward to having Rasheedat with us for the next two years."

The new league season starts in March and Ajibade will be focused on settling in her new surroundings.

The GoFundMe campaign dedicated to Americans funding the Texas border wall has been shut down after funders failed to reach the $1 billion goal set. Bobby Whithorne, director of North America Communications for GoFundMe said donors will receive their money on April 11, unless they choose to donate their contribution to the campaign creator's new venture, GoFundMe said in an email to the campaign's participants.   Brian Kolfage, a triple-amputee Air Force veteran, raised more than $20 million on the crowd-funding platform to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. At the onset of the campaign, Kolfage said he would only collect the funds if the campaign hit its goal of $1 billion about one-fifth of what President Trump has been demanding from Congress to build it.   "However, that did not happen. This means all donors will receive a refund," Whithorne said. The refund announcement came a day after BuzzFeed News reported that Kolfage pocketed money ...

He also said that he is heartbroken he can’t step in to help. Thomas Markle went on to beg the Duchess of Sussex, whom he hasn't spoken to since she got married to Prince Harry, to pick up the phone. He warned that he would "keep talking" and "probably get louder" until he is back in contact with his daughter. He told the Sun: If there is any animosity between Meghan and Kate they should put their differences aside. I’m very upset by the criticism Meghan is getting.
