Madrid CFF's Free-scoring Striker Born In Spain Open To Representing Nigeria

Published: November 04, 2019

One of the most promising female footballers in Spain, Victoria Lopez has refused to rule out representing the Nigeria National Teams even though she is on the radar of the Royal Spanish Football Federation.

Born to a Spanish father and a Nigerian mother in Spain, Vicky was the Most Valuable Player of the inaugural LaLiga Promises Women's National Tournament and tallied seven goals in six games to win the top scorer award.

On October 24, she helped Madrid CFF win the East Mallorca Girls Cup U14 category, beating PSG and other European heavyweights along the way.

''There are several years left to play for the national team and I don't know what preference she has,'' Vicky's father Jesús López-Serrano Pérez told allnigeriasoccer.com.

''I know that as a tribute to her mother she would like to have the experience of playing for Nigeria's youth teams.

''The Spanish national teams start at U16, I am optimistic that she will be called up to the U16s after playing for the regional team.''

Jesús López-Serrano Pérez added : ''In the Madrid League, her team Infantil A of Madrid CFF play in the Boys' League in the first division and first in the standings, and Vicky is the top scorer.

''Several important universities in the United States of America are already interested in her. ''

Last season, the free-scoring Vicky Lopez netted more than 70 goals for the youth teams of Madrid CFF.
