"With Chinaza and Uchenna we get two good offensive players that complement and spearhead our team, which also gives the squad better balance and durability," says Olof Unogård, Sports Manager at Linköpings FC in a press release.
Both new acquisitions played the World Cup for Nigeria in 2019. Uchendu, born in 1997, is described as a fit, technical and strong offensive player.
- I like the Swedish league that has both good teams and players, and I like Linköping FC's way of playing, says Chinaza Uchendu.
One step higher up in the plan, it is thought that Kanu will house and do what she is best at - to score goals. The 22-year-old made ten hits in the West African Championships last year and has East goals for previous clubs.
- Linköpings FC has a long history of success and I look forward to being able to take home titles and create a professional level name here, says Uchenna Kanu.
