Francis Uzoho, the goalkeeper for Nigeria's Super Eagles, has bid farewell to Omonia Nicosia after a five-year tenure, signing with Omonia 29is Maiou. Reflecting on his time at the club, Uzoho expressed gratitude to the fans and management for their unwavering support. "It was a privilege to represent this prestigious club," he stated on Instagram.
Uzoho, 27, joined Omonia initially on loan from Deportivo La Coruña in 2019 and became a permanent fixture in 2021. During his time with Omonia, he made 77 appearances, conceding 84 goals and keeping 29 clean sheets. Osimhen, Iheanacho, and Lookman recently scored in victories. Uzoho, who had been the second-choice keeper to Fabiano at Omonia, was informed he could leave before the summer transfer window closed.
Three Cypriot clubs were interested before he chose Omonia 29is Maiou, who are currently leading the early-season table. A three-year contract, with a possible one-year extension, is expected to make him the team's first-choice goalkeeper.
