Enyeama Targets NPFL Return, Eyes Akwa United

Former Super Eagles goalkeeper, Vincent Enyeama, is set to stage a return to active football.

Enyeama hung his glove a decade ago following a glorious career that saw him played for clubs in Israel and France.

The 40-year-old represented Nigeria’s at two FiFA World Cups.

“It’s really interesting, yes it is, and I miss football,” Enyeama said in an interview on Uyo’s Comfort 95.1FM.

“So I would like to return to it, first with a team here in France, because I trained here in Lille and back when I was in Akwa Ibom.

“And I will come back to Nigeria next year. So if Akwa United needs a goalkeeper for 4-5 months, yes, I have the opportunity to play for free.”

Enyeama, the 2013 African Nations Cup winner played for Enyimba and Heartland in the Nigeria Professional Football League before moving abroad.
