“Nigeria is indeed a football country that is represented in almost every World Cup. It is not easy for players in the fourth league to jump on the train..
“I am currently pursuing focused goals with KFC. There is contactand time will tell the rest. because I am completely relaxed,” said Udegbe to reviersport.de.
