When pressed further if Burna Boy is his favourite Nigerian artiste, the Europa Conference League topscorer was split between the 'Twice as Tall' star and 'Made in Lagos' crooner Wizkid.

Dessers shines for Super Eagles, Europa Conference League
Dessers was one of the Super Eagles stars to play in a European cup final this season, with his 10 goals in the UEFA Europa Conference League carrying Feyenoord to the final in Tirana against Jose Mourinho's AS Roma.
Like Rangers' trio of Calvin Bassey, Joe Aribo and Leon Balogun who lost the Europa League final to Eintracht Frankfurt, Dessers also lost the Conference League final as Roma clinched a 1-0 victory.
Dessers is expected to lead the line again when the Super Eagles face Ecuador in their second friendly on Friday, June 3 at the Red Bull Arena in New Jersey, United States of America.
