I'm a product of the Principal Cup - Nigeria & Madrid CFF defender Okeke opens up on her discovery

With the Spanish top-flight brought to a halt by the pandemic, the Super Falcons youngster has shared the story of her discovery

Nigeria international and Madrid CFF defender Chidinma Okeke has taken time to reflect on her remarkable career journey of discovery amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The 19-year-old starred for the Flamingos at the U17 Women's World Cup in Jordan, where they failed to progress from the group stage in 2016.

In 2018, Okeke helped the Falconets reach the U20 Women's World Cup quarter-finals in France, where she helped the Super Falcons reach the Women's World Cup Round of 16 last year.
