However, his focus remains on improving the Killer Wasps&#8217; fortunes above all else. &#8220;My personal target is to help the team as much as I can to contribute goals and assists,&#8221; he explained. &#8220;I\u2019m more of a team player so the success of the team is very important.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prachuap have added an exciting attacking talent to their roster, sealing a deal for former Trat FC forward Adefolarin Durosinmi one month ahead of the Thai League restart\u00a0 After parting ways with Trat FC due to budget cuts resulting from COVID-19, the Nigerian forward has swapped East for West by joining Prachuap FC.
