Value of the Eunisell Boot is N3.8 million, been N200,000 for each goal he scored in the league.
“We’re delighted to have made history with Eunisell Boot winner, Junior Lokosa as he was part of the Kano Pillars team that won last edition of the Gold Cup that was held in Ilorin”, said Tunde Shamsudeen.

“Big credit goes to Eunisell for initiating this award, as it’s life changing for players in the domestic league in Nigeria.
“Two Hundred Thousand Naira for a GOAL scored is no joke, it shows they place premium value on our local stars.
