Elche confirm Uzoho loan deal

By Akeem Lawal
Spanish second division side, Elche have confirmed the signing of Super Eagles’ first choice goalkeeper, Francis Uzoho on a season-long loan deal from relegated side Deportivo La Coruna.

Sportsbiz247.blogspot.com reports that the Spanish side made the announcement via their official Twitter account on Friday with a five minute You Tube video of the goalkeeper.
“New Video 📺📺 Today we reacted to the recent signing of #ElcheCF Francis Uzoho (@Uzohof). The Nigerian arrives from the Deportivo de la Coruña”, the club said alongside the video.

Elche were thrown out of the top division in Spain last season as a punishment for failing to pay tax debts, despite finishing 13th on the table.
Elche were left without a first choice shot stopper, following the return of Unai Simón to Athlétic de Bilbao last week.


The club named a youth-team goalkeeper, Adrián Real, as substitute in their goalless draw with Granada last weekend.
