“It’s what every footballer wants, to represent the country. I have no words, I was very overwhelmed by the moment, I was very very happy for my dad because I know it meant a lot to him,” he told Genk's official website.
” I was also very happy he could come to watch me play for the first time ever professionally in Nigeria.”
