Imperial FC midfielder David Aremo is making his presence felt early in the 2026/27 TCC League campaign, earning the Matchday 2 Man of the Match honour as Imperial maintained their perfect start to the season.

Aremo was recognised following Imperial’s 1-0 victory over Dino Sporting Club on September 12, a result that gave the club two wins from their opening two league matches and six points from a possible six.
The midfielder is no stranger to making an impact in Imperial colours. Last season, Aremo struck twice in a dramatic 4-4 draw against Iganmu Tiger, scoring from close range before converting a penalty in the second half.
His continued progress has also attracted attention beyond Nigerian football.
In May 2026, reports indicated that Aremo travelled to England for a trial with Chelsea, an opportunity that demonstrated the kind of international interest his development at Imperial has generated.
“Every game is another chance to prove myself. I want to keep improving, help Imperial achieve something special this season and make the most of every opportunity football gives me.”
That ambition fits the journey of a player steadily building his profile. TCC’s official 2026/27 player register lists Aremo as a midfielder wearing the No.10 shirt for Imperial, placing him in a role where creativity, responsibility and influence are expected.
For Imperial, the encouraging part is that individual development is being matched by results. After two matches, they sat at the top of the early TCC League standings with a maximum six points.
And for Aremo, another Man of the Match recognition provides further evidence of why his name continues to generate interest.
From delivering in the TCC League to earning an opportunity to test himself in England, David Aremo’s journey shows exactly how strong performances at home can create possibilities beyond Nigeria’s shores.
