Arthur Okonkwo has been awarded his first senior call-up to the Nigeria national football team, an honor attributed to his outstanding performances with Wrexham A.F.C. in the English Championship.
The 24-year-old goalkeeper has been named in coach Éric Chelle’s squad for the upcoming Unity Cup in London, following FIFA’s clearance for him to represent Nigeria earlier in April.
Wrexham celebrated this milestone by posting a congratulatory message on X, stating:
