Former Super Eagles coach, Adegboye Onigbinde, may have stoked a round of controversy when he picked former national team captain, Vincent Enyeama, as the best goalkeeper in the history of football in Nigeria.⁣
⁣
Onigbinde, who has been coaching since the 70s and led Nigeria to a second-place finish at the 1984 Africa Cup of Nations before, years later, tinkering the nigerian supereagles at the 2002 FIFA World Cup, noted that Nigeria has over the years has produced great goalkeepers but that vincentenyeama stands out owing to his outstanding performances over the course of his career in Nigeria and in Europe. ⁣
⁣
“As a coach that has worked with different generations of Super Eagles’ players, I know Nigeria has produced great goalkeepers like Best Ogedengbe, Peter Rufai, Emmanuel Okala, Patrick Okala, Peter Fregene, Wilfred Agbonavbare, Joe Erico, Innua Rigogo, Alloy Agu, Zion Ogunfeyimi and Agwo Nnaji, among others.

But I think we should give the best goalkeeper so far in Nigeria to Vincent Enyeama,” he said in an interview with The Guardian.⁣
⁣
“Enyeama stands out from these other goalkeepers because he performed well by being the number six best goalkeeper in Europe in 2016, which automatically made him one of the top keepers in the world at that period.

His remarkable performance for Enyimba and the Eagles was worthy to be praised.⁣
⁣
Onigbinde went on to recall how he discovered Enyeama during a game between Enyimba and Julius Berger, prior to the Korea/Japan 2002 World Cup.⁣
⁣
“After watching him for some minutes I told my assistant, Fanny Amun, that he is Super Eagles number one goalkeeper for the World Cup. He asked if I knew him before and I said no. Since then Enyeama has not disappointed me,” he said
