Enaholo Looking To Strike A Deal Abroad

Flying Eagles goalkeeper, Joshua Enaholo, has told SL10.ng that he hopes to seal a deal abroad after the FIFA U20 World Cup.

The MFM of Lagos goalie, who displaced the more famous Dele Alampasu to become Nigeria's first choice goalkeeper at the 2015 Africa Youth Championship, says the target for him is to do well in New Zealand and attract interests from foreign clubs.

"The target is to do well and get a club abroad, in Europe precisely. That's my dream and I believe the same applies to my other teammates here," he told sl10.ng.

"The Africa Youth Championship was a great experience for me and it has made me a better goalkeeper but with a good outing at the World Cup, I hope I'll get offers abroad."

It is usually difficult for African goalkeepers to get professional contracts in Europe, but Enaholo says he's confident he'll get a club if he does well in New Zealand.

"I know it's difficult for goalkeepers from Africa but I'm hoping to get that break.

"I'm hoping I'll get a contract in Europe, I just have to do well. I have that belief and I know it will work for me."

The optimism notwithstanding, he has a plan B, and that will be effected if plan A doesn't work.

"The plan B is to play in the Nigeria premier league if I don't get a club abroad. I wish to play abroad but if it doesn't work, I'll play here in Nigeria," he said with a smile.

Already, some of his Flying Eagles teammates have signed for various clubs abroad.
