Speaking in Uyo, AC Milan winger Chukwueze revealed the spirited performances during training sessions, which he believes will secure a victory for the 2013 AFCON champions in Uyo.

“It’s always an amazing feeling to be in the Eagles team. The atmosphere in camp is great, and every player is ready for the game. It is the first time in a while that I’m seeing players fight in training. It’s a great feeling,”

On the game, the AC Milan winger said, “We plan to win the game, which is very important that we win the game even if we have qualified for the Africa Cup of Nations.”

“I can’t remember the last time we won a game at home in Nigeria. A win will draw our fans closer to the team as we prepare for the World Cup qualifiers in November,”
