Kenneth Omeruo: Is He the Perfect Replacement for Joseph Yobo

WHO IS KENNETH OMERUO?

Kenneth Omeruo is a Super Eagles Defender who is plying his trade with CD Leganes in Spanish Laliga. He was born on the 17th of October 1993. Omeruo is a very strong Nigerian defender loved both by the Super Eagles Fans and that of Leganes for his die hard defending abilities and style of play. You need to see Omeruo in action when he plays; he is ever ready to put his body on the line to prevent a goal from going through his goal post. To make it short, he is like an Eagle and a Warrior on the field of play.
