James Alabi launches new club in UK: Toney, Fikayo, Iwobi, 21 Savage, others spotted at opening

James Alabi has recently opened a new club in the UK called “Not For Children,” attracting attention from notable figures such as English internationals Fikayo Tomori, Ivan Toni, and Alex Iwobi, alongside popular singer 21 Savage, Soccernet.ng reports.

The Bath City FC player, known for his entrepreneurial ventures, hosted a star-studded event where his celebrity football friends were spotted enjoying the opening.

The exact nature of Alabi’s relationship with Brentford star Toney, Fikayo, Iwobi, and others remains unclear, though it’s noteworthy that Fikayo and Alex Iwobi, like Alabi, are England-based players with Nigerian roots.

Alabi shared a picture on his social media showcasing the festivities, which included British rapper 21 Savage and Aurelien Tchouameni among other attendees, expressing gratitude to all who joined the celebration.

“We bring the vibes to the uk. @its_nfc We all the way up. Thank you to everyone that came out for us last night ! On Gard” he wrote

With a background spanning various football clubs and owning a media outfit named BallerMedia, Alabi’s career journey includes stints at Stoke City, Scunthorpe United, Mansfield Town, and several others.

Despite his eligibility to play for the Nigerian national team, Alabi’s chances of selection may be slim given the current talent pool, as the Super Eagles boast a roster filled with quality players.
