NPFL Boss Celebrates Chibuike Nwaiwu’s Super Eagles Debut
Gbenga Elegbeleye has praised Chibuike Nwaiwu’s debut for the Super Eagles. Nwaiwu came on at half-time in Nigeria’s 2-1 friendly win over Iran. Nwaiwu began his career with Heartland before moving to Enyimba. He helped Enyimba secure a record ninth NPFL title in 2022/23. He then joined Wolfsberger AC, won the Austrian Cup, and moved to Trabzonspor in January. Elegbeleye called Nwaiwu’s rapid rise a “significant source of pride” for the NPFL. He added that this achievement will inspire league players to raise their game for moves abroad and national team selection.
