The 22-year-old currently on loan at Serie B club, AS Varese 1910 has wowed Nigerian football fans with big performances in the few games he had played at age grade level for the national team. Keshi has now revealed that the Oduamadi is in his plans as he looks to re-enforce the reigning African champions.
