Spanish League in Love with Nigerian Ladies

Super falcons forward, Uchenna Kanu has joined Spanish professional side, Sevilla for the rest of the season after goal spree performances in USA with her first appearance likely to come against Oshoala’s league runaway leaders, Barcelona W.

The 22-year-old who won the NAIA Women’s Player of the Year 2019 following a record-breaking year in the United States, having emerged the all-time top-scorer with 157 goals and 366 points will wear the jersey number 19 for the Spanish outfit.

Kanu was also the top scorer when Nigeria won 2019 Wafu Women’s Cup and starred at the 2019 Women’s World Cup as the country reached the Round of 16 for the first time since 1999.
Uchenna will hope to replicate her USA performances in Spain as she joins Chikwelu, Oshoala in the league.
