Speaking after his side drew 1-1 at home to Spartaks, the 23-year-old said that it has been an amazing journey so far for him and hopes to keep doing well whenever he is given the nod to start in goal by the coaches. “It has been an impressive start to life in Latvia for me,” he said.

 

“I came here to play regularly and I’m happy with the game time I’m getting and hope it keeps getting better for me and the team.

 

“Every player’s dream is to play for his country, and I have always cherished being invited to the Super Eagles. Hopefully, I will get my time again now that I’m playing regularly with my club.”
