Nigerian striker Paul Matthew Omale has been officially announced by JDFS Alberts, with the Latvian First League club confirming the former Dynamo Academica forward as part of their squad for the ongoing season, Boldsports report.
The 2007-born attacker developed at Dynamo Academica in Benin City, Edo State, before earning his opportunity through the Hyper Games Scouting Program, an initiative organised by Rolly Football Club in November 2025. Although the announcement has just been made, Omale joined JDFS Alberts at the start of the season and has already begun his career in Latvia.
Omale has settled quickly into life at JDFS Alberts. The young striker has featured in five matches across the league and cup competitions, scoring one goal. His early contributions underline the club’s confidence in his potential and highlight his progress since making the move to Europe.
Competing in Latvia’s 1. līga, the country’s second division, JDFS Alberts offers the Nigerian forward an important platform to continue his development and gain valuable experience in European football.
JDFS Alberts welcomed the striker with an official statement on the club’s social media channels.
”Our newest addition – Paul Mathew Omale! Born in Nigeria in 2007, the striker joined us at the start of the season and has played five games for our championship team in the league and cup, scoring one goal! Welcome to JDFS Alberts.”
The statement confirms both his arrival and his encouraging start, with the teenager already contributing to the team’s campaign.
Omale’s journey from Dynamo Academica to European football reflects the growing opportunities available to young Nigerian players through organised scouting programmes. His successful outing at the Hyper Games Scouting Program opened the door to this move, and he now has the chance to continue his growth in a competitive European environment.
The forward will aim to build on his positive start as he looks to earn more minutes, add to his goal tally, and establish himself as an important player for JDFS Alberts in the Latvian First League.
