On his next move, Alege, who has always been on the watchlist of top clubs in the elite league declared himself ready to take a good offer from the NPFL ahead of the upcoming season.

"We had a series of talks with some top clubs before the commencement of this season which is about to finish but it didn't materialise.Most of them have kept in contact with me and we will weigh some of the options"he added.

Admired for his composure and tenacity, Alege was part of the consistency-dubbed Gombe United team under the tutelage of Coach Aliyu Zubair. 

The former Wikki Tourists of Bauchi talisman, who  stands out as a defender with some of his qualities of agility, good communication skills, strong anticipation, adaptability and flexibility has endeared himself with many suitors in the league.
