When discussing young and promising talents making waves in the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) this season, one name that stands out is Kumater Shina of Nasarawa United.
The dynamic young midfielder has been a key figure for the Solid Miners, showcasing his versatility by excelling in multiple positions throughout the season.
Kumater has featured in 27 out of 31 matches for Nasarawa United in the 2024/25 NPFL season, proving to be one of the most valuable utility players in Nigeria’s top-flight league.
Despite Nasarawa United struggling in the relegation zone, the 18-year-old has enjoyed an impressive individual campaign.
His outstanding performance in the team’s narrow 1-0 defeat to Kwara United on Wednesday in Ilorin further solidified his reputation as one of Nigeria’s brightest young prospects.
With his talent and consistency, Kumater is expected to attract interest from top clubs ahead of the summer transfer window.
