Cork City FC offer Nigerian teenager a trial after he surpasses 50,000 retweets

"I can't thank you all enough. I wish I could hug everyone right now."

A Nigerian teenager has been offered a trial by Cork City FC after he tweeted the club asking for a chance to prove himself.

We’ve all seen those type of tweets before, ‘how many retweets do I need to’ but in this case, the result wasn’t for a lifetime of free doughnuts, it was to change someone's life.
