“I do think you do recognise certain players like Fawaaz that there would be interest. There was interest not only locally but also from North Africa and hence a season ago, Omega got signed and brought into the squad and he had to bide his time,” Barker said.
“He didn't play many minutes last season but training every day with the team, you know, getting his fair share here and there of minutes when Fawaaz was maybe injured or needed to be rested.
“I think it's now his time to come and I think that's maybe what we do well is anticipate what may happen going forward and then in the meantime start preparing the next player or two to then be the next one to step up.
“So, again, just happy for Omega and he's really putting his hand up and doing well.”
