I shit you not I just saw him playing on TV and they referred to him as "28 yr old" Obafemi Martens. I chuckled.

Nothing peculiar about Martens. I mean at 28 why not go MLS to wind down your career.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

That was the point of the whole thing and probably this too, there are no records to prove it one way or the other.

I reckon Kanu was about 32 when he was a "promising youngster"
