Thank you I have been looking for a Igbo teacher for a while. So please let me know if you do get this going ! Thank you

Ikeme is Nigerian but was born in England which was where he also grew up. But it appears the 33-year-old wants to connect with his Igbo roots by learning the language.

The former Doncaster Rovers goalkeeper announced his retirement from the game in 2018 after he was diagnosed with acute leukaemia. Although he is now in full remission, he had to retire based on medical grounds.

He made 10 appearances for Nigeria and was in goal in the Super Eagles 2-1 victory over Zambia during the 2018 World Cup qualifiers.
