Yesterday newly promoted German Bundesliga side Elversberg created the biggest shock in the opening weekend of the Bundesliga with a 3-2 win over Bayer Leverkusen, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
The star of the win was Francis-Ikechukwu Onyeka, a 19 year old who was born in Germany to parents of Nigerian descent making him eligible for the senior national team of Nigeria .
He is on loan to the newly promoted side from Bayer Leverkusen, and he showed them exactly why the head coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Eric Chelle is keen on having him in his team.
Fresh from winning the man of the match in the German Cup he followed that performance with an assist for his side’s opener, and also had a hand in the third goal for his team.
A youth international for Germany, Chelle is hopeful that he will be able to convince him after talks but at the moment contacts is yet to be established with his representatives.
