Nigeria first-choice goalkeeper Francis Uzoho has joined Cypriot club, Anorthosis Famagusta on a six-month loan deal from Spanish LaLiga side, Deportivo La Coruna.
The Russia 2018 World Cup goalkeeper had to cut short his loan to Spanish second division side Elche to join the Cyprus outfit shortly before the January transfer deadline.
The former U-17 rose to prominent after couples of good performances for his parent club Deportivo in the Spanish La Liga last since and had since went on loan at the second division to continue his development.
Uzoho, however, is optimistic that the move will benefit him as he have the chance of playing regularly in order to be in good shape for the summer African Cup of Nations in Egypt.
Anorthosis who previously had Super Eagles right back Shehu Abdullahi on their payroll are sixth on the table with 27 points from 18 matches.
