Top scorer in the history of the Nigeria Professional Football League , Mfon Udoh says he is hoping to open his goals account for the Super Eagles when they play Mali and Ivory Coast in two international friendly matches in January.

The home based Eagles player will prosecute the games against the Malians and the Ivoirians in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates and Udo , who usurped Jude Aneke’ s previous
record of 20 goals in a single season in the Nigerian league , says having scored 23 goals in the league last season, he would like to start scoring for the Super Eagles .

“ It is my dream to score for the Super Eagles and also help to win games , ” Udoh said .
“ As a striker , it is always my dream to put the ball in the back of the net and playing for the Super Eagles will be no different . ”

The 22 - year - old almost got on the score sheet in November when the home based Eagles defeated Ghana ’ s Black Meteors 1- 0 in Uyo and he says he would like to register his
first goal for Nigeria , but admits that the most important thing is for the team to win .

“ I will always want to score goals and it will give me great joy to score for my country . But I know the most important thing is for us to win whether I score or not and I hope we win the games , ” Udoh concluded .
