This is a very big achievement to Kelechi Nwakali and of course to the Nigeria Football Federation as our junior team players are being drafted into senior teams at club level. Kelechi Nwakali, who is now the captain of the Nigeria U20 team, the Flying Eagles, has added to the list of the fast improving Nigerian starlets like his namesake, Kelechi Iheanacho, Isaac success, Musa Muhammed, Alexandra Iwobi, among others who have all been playing topflight football in Europe at the age below 20.Kelechi was 17 when he was voted and awarded the Most Valuable Player in the last concluded World FIFA U17 tournament that was held in Chile last year, although he was equally presented with a bronze medal as the third highest goal scorer for the tournament but was later retrieved from him and given to his teammate, Chukwueze Samuel who also had the same number of 3 goals but was the first to reach 3 goals.

Congratulations Kelechi more wins I pray for you.
Sincerely speaking Nigeria junior team and the female team are the ones taking Nigeria name round the world in flying colours
Congratulations to him
I wonder why he has not been able to play for any division one team all through his career, up till this moment he still plays for Spanish segunda team SD ponferradina.
I wish him greater heights.
