Eagles Goalkeeper Uzoho Undergoes Successful Knee Surgery

Super Eagles goalkeeper, Francis Uzoho, has undergone a successful surgery on his knee.

 

This was confirmed on the Super Eagles verified Twitter handle on Friday with a picture of Uzoho on his hospital bed.

Uzoho sustained the injury during last month’s international friendly against Brazil which ended 1-1 in Singapore.

The Deportivo La Coruna goalkeeper landed awkwardly while trying to make a save from a corner-kick.

“Thank God for the successful surgery, now rehabilitation begins. Get well soon @Uzohof. We can’t wait to have you back.”

The 2018 FIFA World Cup goalkeeper is on loan to Cyprus club Omonia Nicosia and has made four appearances so far this season.
