Enyeama to Retire After 2017 AFCON

Super Eagles goalkeeper, Vincent Enyeama has revealed his plan to hang his international gloves after the next African Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Gabon in 2017. 
The 32 year-old Lille goalie is the second Super Eagles player to reach the 100 caps mark since his debut against Kenya in May 2002. He however hopes to resign from the national team by lifting the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations trophy.
He told BBC Sport, “It’s impossible to play football forever and the next tournament in Gabon will be my last one. I’ve played in two finals, lost in 2004, won in 2013, and to win in 2017 is how I hope to be remembered. But more significantly we must not get ahead of ourselves because we need to qualify first.”
