Nigeria's upcoming Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Madagascar and Guinea-Bissau have prompted goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo to set his sights on potentially surpassing the legendary Vincent Enyeama, the country's former No.1 goalkeeper, according to PUNCH Sports Extra. The 24-year-old, currently on loan at Charlton Athletic, will return to Éric Chelle’s squad for the matches in Uyo and Guinea-Bissau.
Enyeama, who made 101 appearances for Nigeria, including three World Cup appearances, is renowned for his exceptional saves and played a crucial role in Nigeria's 2013 Africa Cup of Nations victory. Okonkwo has expressed his admiration for Enyeama, stating that he aspires to be close to, or better than, the former Super Eagles keeper.
