Uzoho Makes Early Return To Pre-season Training With Deportivo
Published: July 16, 2018Super Eagles goaltender, Francis Uzoho has been spotted in pre-season training with his La Liga club, Deportivo La Coruna, a publication on the club's official website has revealed.
The 19-year-old who became the youngest goalkeeper to play for Nigeria at the World Cup has returned to Depor's training base in Spain and worked with the club's goalkeeper coach, Yvan Castillo on Monday.
Uzoho was one of the early birds to return to training for Natxo González's team and it could tip the scale in his favour ahead of the resumption of a new season, after breaking through Branquiazuis youth ranks to feature for the first team last season.
He made two senior appearances in the division for the club last season (versus Girona and Eibar), while also taking in 26 Segunda Liga outings for their Fabril side.
"I learn from the past but never sit down thinking about the past.A new season so will a new chapter in my career begin. FORZA DEPOR IN CHRIST ALONE", he wrote on his twitter handle.
Uzoho and his teammates will play Bergantiños, Ponferradina, Real Valladolid, Lugo and Real Oviedo as part of their pre-season activities.
