Isaac Promise (born
2 December 1987 in Zaria) is a Nigerian football player,
who currently plays for Giresunspor on
loan from Karabükspor.
Club career
As a promising youngster, Promise went on trials with Nigerian second
division side Grays International. Attracting attention from several big name
football clubs in Europe, he went on trials with Manchester
United alongside John Obi Mikel,
but found the trials unsuccessful. After being linked with Dutch outfit Feyenoord Rotterdam he eventually signed
for Turkcell Süper Ligclub Genclerbirligi in
a three-year deal in August 2005.
In the Turkcell Super League 2006-07 season
Promise scored 12 goals. He more than doubled the number of his total goals for
Gençlerbirliği. On 15 July 2008, Isaac agreed a 4-year deal with Trabzonspor.
With Trabzonspor, he scored two goals in 26 matches. Because of his
average performance he was loaned out to Manisaspor for
a year. Isaac played 27 matches and scored six goals. In the summer of
2010, Manisaspor signed
a contract with Isaac. After scoring 11 goals in 30 matches with his now
relegated club Manisaspor, he signed a 3-year contract with Antalyaspor.
In February 2015, he signed a six months deal with Balıkesirspor.
International career
Isaac was named as the captain of Nigeria squad for the 2008
Summer Olympics. On 13 August 2008 at Tianjin Olympic Centre Stadium of China, Promise
scored Nigeria's first goal against USA in the
preliminary stage, Nigeria went ahead to win the match by 2–1.
