Ejike Uzoenyi opts out of 2023-24 NPFL season with Rangers

Ejike Uzoenyi won’t be partaking in the upcoming 2023-24 Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) season alongside Rangers.

The former Super Eagles forward has been notably absent from the Flying Antelopes’ preparations for the forthcoming NPFL campaign.

Nobert Okolie, spokesperson for Rangers, conveyed that there’s a possibility the 35-year-old has concluded his active football career.

DAILY POST’s information reveals that this seasoned NPFL player failed to appear for discussions regarding a potential contract extension with the team.

Uzoenyi’s most recent appearance for Rangers was during their loss to Bendel Insurance in the 2023 Federation Cup held in Asaba.

Throughout his career, he contributed significantly, amassing over 60 appearances for the seven-time NPFL champions.

Uzoenyi’s football journey also saw him represent the reigning NPFL champions, Enyimba, in the past.
