Super Eagles goalkeeper, Vincent Enyeama, has denied reports that he
has called it quit with the Super Eagles and re-affirmed his commitment to the
team.
Enyeama had hinted at the idea of stepping down from national
duty after the World Cup in Brazil, but has now changed his tune and is looking
to add to his 94 caps.
“I am still very much a national team player,” he confirmed,
after collecting the Award for Excellence at the annual Ibom Football Awards in
his hometown of Uyo.
The honour was in recognition of his stellar performances in
France last season, which the 31-year-old described as “special”.
“I am really pleased with this award,” he added. “I want to
thank the Guvaps management for this.
“I have won many accolades in my career but to be honoured by my
people in Akwa Ibom State is special.
“Charity begins at home so this means a lot to me. I will
continue working harder to achieve even more.”
Enyeama made his debut for the Super Eagles in 2002 and is set
to be named the permanent captain of the side, following Joseph Yobo’s
retirement from international football.
His schedule at Lique 1 outfit Lille is set to pile up in the upcoming campaign, with UEFA Champions League football on the horizon.
"I for say"... Lol!
