Olatunji on his experience w/ his new teammates thus far, who he’s excited to play with in and describes his playing style for those unfamiliar with him. I asked for his strengths- he just wants to improve- an interesting answer. And finally- how he thinks fans will describe him a year from now 🔥🔥🔥

Olatunji has his first goal celebration planned out already, describes himself as a different person on and off the pitch, hasn’t really had a chance to explore Utah yet, but knows exactly what he’d be doing if he weren’t a footballer 🎶🎤

Here Victor tells @royalriotpod.bsky.social his priority right now is learning the system and how he’ll fit in, who his first footballing hero was (sorry Miami fans), how it felt being the first Nigerian player to score and assist on his Champions League debut, and why he chose #RSL over Europe

Finished with some rapid fire questions. Monarchs HC Mark Lowry called Hezarkhani a “special player” and I couldn’t agree more.

How have you prepared for your first regular season road trip and the possibility of an RSL debut?
(likely way too young to remember “I STAY ready so I ain’t gotta GET ready” but he made me lol here. Stepped away from my mic in time not to corrupt my audio, but you’ll see him laugh in response.)
