Super Eagles Goal Keeper Vincent Enyeama Wins Goal Nigeria Player Of The Year 2014

A well deserved congratulations to Super Eagles Goal keeper, Vincent Enyeama who has been named the Goal Nigeria Player of the Year 2014, winning the award courtesy of overwhelming votes from readers of the football website. Enyeama beat others in the category that included Ahmed Musa, Obafemi Martins, Mfon Udoh and Ikechukwu Uche and accepted the award at his club in France on Monday morning.

"I’m really happy. I want to thank my teammates at Lille, the Nigeria national team, my coaches, my wife, my fans, everybody who voted for me, who scream for me during matches to encourage me. And the journalists, without which nothing will be possible.” I think it’s really hard for a goalkeeper to be recognized. I want to say to all the other goalkeepers that they have to work hard. If they work hard, with God, everything is possible,” he said.

Enyeama would become the second player to win the Goal Nigeria Player of the Year award following John Obi Mikel who had maintained the title in the last 2 years.
