Carl Ikeme Visited By Important Guest Ahead Showdown With Swaziland
Published: November 17, 2015
Ahead of the eagerly anticipated World Cup qualifier between the Super Eagles and Swaziland, an important guest visited the Presidential Hotel, Port Harcourt, where the national team is lodged, on Monday.
Ezennie Ikeme, Carl Ikeme’s dad, was at the camp to see his beloved son and motivate him ahead of the crucial encounter at the Adokiye Amiesiamaka Stadium.
In a recent interview with fifa.com, Carl Ikeme admitted that his family was proud of his decision to pledge his international future to Nigeria ahead of England.
The Wolves goalie said : “The thing that meant the most to me was how much it made my family proud - they were ecstatic.
“It made me feel really good that all my family in Nigeria were proud of me for representing my country.
“My granddad passed away a few years ago as well, so it was a good feeling to put the Nigeria shirt on knowing that he was looking down on me.”
Carl Ikeme will be suiting up for the Super Eagles for the sixth time on Tuesday afternoon, having made his debut barely two months ago against Tanzania in an African Cup of Nations qualifier.
