AFCON 2015 QUALIFIER: Ike Uche Promises Goals In Return For Recall To Eagles by iconize(m): 9:34am On Nov 06, 2014


Recalled Super Eagles forward, Ikechukwu Uche, has promised Nigerians who rooted for his recall to the senior national team goals ahead of the country’s two must-win clashes with Congo and South Africa in 2015 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

The Villarreal of Spain goal poacher told Super Eagles Media Officer, Ben Alaiya, yesterday that he was looking forward to joining his team mates for the crucial games.

Uche last played for the Super Eagles at the 2013 AFCON Nigeria won in South Africa.

After a period of being frozen out of the team for what Coach Stephen Keshi described as his ‘poor team attitude’, the 30-year-old former Iwuanyanwu Nationale player was handed a recall to the Eagles a fortnight ago.

Uche who has netted 18 times in senior internationals with Nigeria is eager to hit the ground running.

“I had a conversation with Ikechukwu Uche on Tuesday evening and he told me he can’t wait to join the team. He’s very excited by the prospect of playing for the Super Eagles again,” spokesman of the national team, Alaiya confirmed on Wednesday.

The media chief added that Uche was looking forward to adding to his 18 international goals by scoring in the upcoming game against Congo and South Africa.

“Uche says nothing beats scoring for Nigeria and that he will want to do it again in the matches we will be playing this month.

“He wants to make the fans, his teammates and indeed all Nigerians happy with a great display in the games. He knows Nigerians expect a lot from him,” Alaiya told supersport.com.

Uche made his Nigeria debut in 2007 and has gone on to amass 44 senior caps since then.

The attacker has been in decent form for his Spanish club, Villarreal this term and has netted three goals in all competition for the Yellow Submarine.
