Lille head coach Rene Girard has reportedly chosen Vincent Enyeama over Frenchman Steeve Elana as his number one goalkeeper next season, according to L’Equipe.

In light of the situation, Nigeria’s goalkeeping coach, Ike Shorunmu, has told supersport.com how Enyeama’s development is testament to the nation’s dominance in Africa.

“Honestly I’m happy for him and it shows that he is our best and one of the best in Africa and the world at the moment. I am not surprised that he is now number one at his club.

“You know every coach has different philosophy or plan, so I believe his present coach feels Enyeama is good enough to be number one and I am happy that has happened and it is an advantage to us at the national team,” said Shorunmu.

The 30-year-old joined Lille in 2011, and since has played second choice to Mickael Landreau before he went on loan to Maccabi Tel-Aviv last term.

This update has put an end to the speculations linking Enyeama with a move back to Israel.

This is a nice move!

But why this time when there is no champions league slot for lille and when Falcao, Ibrahimovic, cavani don show!

Hmmm

Ok

Is he goin to pay back $1billion badluck borrowed from the benevolent chinko people??

He's supposed to be before now.

Good move for him. Better late than never. Unfortunately, Lille is no longer the club it was 3-4 years ago.

ain't nobody got time to watch the french league enyeama, if u need exposure come to england

'Will'? There is no asurance.

ROTFLMAO.

It's the likes of Ibra, Cavani, Falcao that will disgrace this man.

Good for Eyeama.

spongeback: Ok so if Mickael Landreau wasn't loaned to Maccabi Tel-Aviv last term he will still be second choice not really much of an improvement is it?

Miss lady, may I ask you to read that paragraph in the original article again.

Congrats Enyeama

OMO IBO:

The match Eagles played with Argentina at the last worldcup when Vincent single-handedly stopped Messi should have attracted big clubs but unfortunately that didn't happen. Better late than never and I think Vincent wont disappoint at all.

thats good...hard-work pays

finally it has happened for my brother!

About freaking time

chei...calamity goal-keeper...PSG 7-0 Lille, AS Monaco 5-0 Lille...Notice to all Strikers in French Ligue 1: Play against Lille and become a strong challenger 4 d league's highest goal scorer

yuzedo: Been a long time coming, muthafuckers! Enyeama has been one of the best 5 goalies in the world for the past few years, #FACT! I'm surprised he hasn't been a regular at a top-flight champions league club. Good job!
