FC Midtjylland attacker, Paul Onuachu says he is waiting patiently for his first invitation to the Super Eagles, but hopes it will come before the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, sports247.ng reports.
With a record as Nigeria’s current top scorer in Europe, ten league goals from 16 games, same as last season in 22 matches, Onuachu believes he has done enough to attract a call-up.
The 24-year-old Onuachu stressed that his strong belief is that he will be given a chance with the Eagles before the start of AFCON 2019, though he is yet to hear from the team’s coach, Gernot Rohr.
Onuachu said: “I have not heard from the coach but I believe I will get my chance soon.
“All I have to do is to keep scoring goals and I will and that will no doubt make it hard for the coach not to invite me.
“My main focus in on doing well for Midtjylland and hopefully I will get a chance to show fans of the Super Eagles what I can do.”
