Super Falcons goalkeeper Tochukwu Oluehi joins Spanish club

This will be Tochukwuu Oluehi's third stint outside of Nigeria.

Super Eagles goalkeeper Tochukwu Oluehi has joined Spanish club Pozoalbense from Nigeria Women’s Premier League (NWPL) side Rivers Angels.

Oluehi joined Pozoalbense on a one-year contract as the ninth signing of the club preparing for life in the Spanish top-flight next season.

This will be the third stint outside Nigeria for the veteran goalkeeper.

The 33-year-old who started her career at Bayelsa Queens had stints in Belarus and Norway before she returned to Rivers Angels where she won four titles including the 2018 Federation Cup where she saved three penalties in the final to help her side to the win.

For Nigeria, she was Super Falcons’ first-choice goalkeeper for several years and played at three FIFA Women’s World Cup tournaments, the 2008 Olympic Games and four Africa Women’s Cup of Nations (AWCON) where she won three titles.

A major highlight of her career was when she saved three penalties to help Nigeria win the 2008 AWCON title in Ghana.

She is no longer the first choice goalkeeper of the Super Eagles having lost her place to the impressive Chiamaka Nnadozie.
