The fourth youngest player in this year's World Cup is Nigeria's Francis Uzoho. The young goalkeeper plies his trade for Spanish La Liga side Deportivo de La Coruna and even made two appearances in the league this season.

Francis, as he is called in Spain, made his debut for Nigeria's senior team against Argentina on the 14th of November 2017 and has made three appearances since.

The teenager stood between the sticks for the Super Eagles in the friendly match against England this past Saturday, which saw his team lose 2-1.

The Nigerian fans seem to be confident on starting the youngster ahead of their other two experienced goalkeepers.

It’s safe to say that Francis Uzoho is Nigeria’s number one goalkeeper at the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
