Nigeria international, Francis Uzoho, has taken to social media to bid an emotional farewell to everyone associated with Cypriot First Division club AC Omonia.
In a heartfelt message, the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations silver medallist expressed gratitude to the fans for the love and unwavering support they have shown him throughout his time at the club.
Uzoho initially joined Omonia on loan from Deportivo La Coruña in July 2019 before returning two years later, this time on a permanent deal, in the summer of 2021.
The 2013 FIFA U17 World Cup-winning goalkeeper leaves The Queen after making 77 appearances in all competitions, conceding 84 goals and keeping 29 clean sheets.

One of his standout performances for Omonia came in a Europa League clash against Manchester United at Old Trafford in October 2022.
Uzoho produced a string of impressive saves and looked set to keep a clean sheet against the Premier League giants before Scott McTominay finally beat him with a goal in the third minute of stoppage time.
“What a journey it’s been for me with this badge on my chest, so many memories. It was an honor to represent this massive club.
“A very big thank you to the fans; the love you guys showed towards me from day one till the last day will never be forgotten.
“I’d hate to say goodbye but it’s not in my hands. I will always love this club. Goodbye,” Uzoho wrote on Instagram.
Amid speculation over Uzoho’s future, he was left on the bench for the first six competitive matches contested by Omonia in the new season.
