Former Nigeria U-17 captain, Kelechi Nwakali, has played his first competitive club game in over a year after featuring for Huesca in their 2-1 home defeat to Mirandes in the Spanish Segunda on Thursd
ay.
The game is Nwakali’s first since making an appearance for FC Porto B in a 1-1 draw against CD Cova Piedade on March 17, 2019, making it 455 days before playing another competitive club game. Nwakali replaced Sergio Gomez in the 83rd minute but failed to help his team get even in the encounter.“Thank God for the game. Although it wasn’t the best result for the team, we keep the focus on the next game.”Since his move in September 2019, the Nigerian has waited patiently for his maiden appearance – with his closest attempt being an unused substitute role in the 3-1 triumph at Malaga on June 12.All rights reserved.
