Aina said via Daily Mail:
"Can't disclose that one. I can’t disclose the club he plays for. The girl and I have been talking for a few weeks and I believe she likes me more."
GOAL reports that both sides of the panel continued to question him, with Aina saying that he 'knows she likes me back.'

Ola Aina: How Premier League club forced Eric Chelle to drop defender from AFCON 2025 squad
The defender, who recently underwent hamstring surgery, had been included in the original 54-man provisional list, with the manager hopeful the additional weeks would prove enough for a late return.
It was gathered that Aina was desperate to make it to the AFCON, having played a crucial role in the qualifiers.
Meanwhile, a Nigerian journalist, Akinkunmi Durojaiye, has decried Ola Aina's absence at the upcoming AFCON tournament, citing the player's impressive outing at AFCON 2023. Durojaiye told Legit.ng:
"Honestly, this will deal a big blow to the Nigerian team. Ola Aina is a key player in the squad, and I remember how impressive he was at the AFCON in the Ivory Coast. He practically manned the defence, and what a partnership he had with Troost-Ekong (William) and Calvin Bassey in the back line.
"I hope Coach Eric Chelle can be proactive and ensure that another good player takes that position. No doubt Aina would be sorely missed. I wish him a speedy recovery, but honestly, this is a sad one for Nigeria as they chase the title. I learnt he really wanted to be at the AFCON, but it is what it is."
