Five European Born Goalkeepers Nigerian Federation Should Keep Tabs On
Published: August 01, 2018
Allnigeriasoccer.com presents readers five European born goalkeepers who are performing well for their clubs and will not look out of place within the national teams setup.
1) Gavin Bazunu - It is a thing of surprise that a 16-year-old Bazunu have already made his first-team debut for Shamrock Rovers in the Ireland Premier League, keeping a clean slate on each of the four occasions he has played. He's already been capped at youth level by Ireland due to his very glaring potentials.
2) Arthur Okonkwo - The Arsenal youth starlet has showed his quality on numerous occasions and surely talented enough to try and poach from the grasp of the English Football Federation. He is highly regarded by legendary Gunners manager, Arsene Wenger who had invited him to train occasionally with the senior team in the past.
3) Emmanuel Idem - The 19-year-old Idem has featured for Aston Villa from the Academy league up to the Premier League 2 with the U23s and is already been tipped to make his senior debut for the club in the Championship next season.
4) Manny Agboola - Agboola, 20, has already expressed his desire to play for the Super Eagles and has showed his capabilities with his English club, Oxford. This period, he has continued to star for the U23s after enjoying productive loan spells away from the League One club. It is highly envisaged that a first team debut could be on the cards in the upcoming football campaign.

The 17-year-old is said to idolise former Nigeria goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama and models his game on his style.
