Peter Mandela Itodo joins KF Luzi United from Klassisch Football Academy
Nigerian forward Peter Mandela Itodo has joined Albanian club KF Luzi United from Klassisch Football Academy, completing a move that will take the young attacker into European football.
Born on 1 July 2003 in Ajegunle, Lagos, Itodo is a Nigerian centre-forward known for his physical presence, movement in the attacking third and ability to play as a central striker. Standing at around 1.82 metres, he possesses the physical frame suited to playing in the forward position.
Itodo began his football development through academies and grassroots clubs in Nigeria before joining Klassisch Football Academy. The move to Luzi United represents another stage in the development of a player who has been identified for his attacking qualities and potential.
The forward is capable of operating centrally and is expected to provide an attacking option for Luzi United as the club prepares for the 2023–24 season.
His move to Albania also marks an important opportunity for the young Nigerian to gain experience in European football and continue his development at senior level.
Itodo’s transfer from Klassisch Football Academy to KF Luzi United further highlights the role of Nigerian football academies in developing young players and providing pathways into the European game.

Participants from different walks of life are eagerly looking forward to the Lagos Women Run scheduled for Saturday, November 14, at the Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS), Lagos.
The participants have expressed excitement about the opportunities and experiences the annual event promises to offer.
Our correspondent reports that, in addition to runners from within Lagos and other parts of Nigeria, some athletes are expected to travel from outside the country to participate in the race.
The organisers are already making preparations for the large number of registered participants, while the possibility of accepting late entries will depend on the timing and other arrangements.
The Coordinator of the Lagos Women Run, Tayo Popoola, said participants should expect an improved experience compared with previous editions.
“We have to continue to get better, as that is the driving force for us as organisers. We will be bigger and better with every edition,” Popoola said.
The 2026 Lagos Women Run will hold on Saturday, November 14, with Tafawa Balewa Square serving as the starting point.
Participants are expected to arrive at the venue by 6:30 a.m. for the event.
