Nwakali starts on bench for 10th game in a row

Former Nigerian junior international midfielder Kelechi Nwakali will be starting SD Huesca’s tonight’s match week 21 LaLiga fixture at Real Valladolid on the substitutes bench for the 10th time in a row amid rumours that the former Arsenal player is on his way out of the club, BSNSports.com.ng reports. Nwakali has been an unused substitute in SD Huesca’s last nine games and last dorned the club’s jersey last November when he was subbed on in the last 34 minutes of their 1-1 draw at CA Osasuna. The 2015 FIFA U-17 World Cup winning captain has started just one of the five games he has played for SD Huesca this term. SD Huesca, a team with the fewest goals scored in the competition this season, with 14 will try to end a seven-game winless streak. The club hasn’t found the net in four consecutive league games while Valladolid, coming off two straight draws, sits 16th in the 20-team standings, two points from the relegation zone.
