Top division Swedish side Mjällby have rubbished claims that their new signing Silas Nwankwo lied over his age following claims that he isn’t 18 years old.

The forward joined the Swedish side from Nigeria Professional League side Nasarawa United after finishing with 19 goals in the Nigerian league last season. The feat earned him the move to Mjällby.

Upon his announcement, talks went wild on his age with many claiming that he isn’t 18 but the club say the allegations are wide off the mark and they have full confidence that he is indeed 18 years old.

Hasse Larsson, the Head of sports at Mjällby, spoke to Swedish Public Radio on the age-cheating matter.

“That’s rubbish. We have full confidence in his management and that his age is right. We have no intention of taking this further”, he said shortly after their 3-2 win over BK Olympic. Nwankwo made his debut in the game.
