Felix Agu shines at the Nigeria debut: victory against Jamaica in the Unity Cup!

On Saturday evening, Felix Agu, the talented full -back from Werder Bremen, celebrated his debut in the Nigerian national team. As part of the "Unity Cup", Nigeria competed against Jamaica and was able to prevail 5: 4 with an exciting penalty shootout after a 2-2 draw. AGU showed a committed performance in this game and was on the pitch from the start.

The game offered dramatic twists: Nigeria took the lead in the 9th minute through a goal from Moses Simon before Jamaica only equalized two minutes later. AGU was able to contribute to victory in the second half by giving an assist for the 2-1 by Samuel Chukwueze in the 53rd minute. From the 83rd minute AGU was allowed to take a seat on the bench and thus experienced a successful debut.

an important step for AGU

The approval for AGU, which enabled him to play for the Super Eagles, was granted shortly before the match by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF). This was approved by the German Football Association (DFB), which approved the change from AGU to the Nigerian national team. Interestingly, AGU had never participated in official games for Germany at the A or Junior level, apart from two friendly games in U-21.

His connections to Nigeria are strong because he was born by Nigerian parents and now takes the chance to play for the national team. "The joy of the debut is indescribable," said Agu after the game, and with participating in the Unity Cup, he has entered the history books of his new national team.

transfer views and contractual adjustments

Not only on the pitch does something for AGU. There are also news behind the scenes that cause excitement. The previously valid exit clause, which AGU should enable at Werder Bremen to leave the club, expired on May 31. However, no club has activated the clause by this deadline, which means that Werder Bremen now has the opportunity to freely negotiate the transfer fee. According to reports, this is between eight and ten million euros.

In the past season, Agu showed what he was in Werder Bremen: In 22 league games, he contributed three goals and a template and played a crucial role, while his team took eighth place in the league. However, the season was not without challenges because he only received a yellow card - a remarkable fairness that earned him additional points in the evaluation.

Felix Aguus seems to have a promising year ahead of him, both on the international parquet and in club football. With fresh self-confidence from his debut, this could be the beginning of a brilliant career for the 25-year-old.
