Francis Uzoho resumed training with his Elche teammates this week after completing a season loan deal from Deportivo La Coruna.
Last season Uzoho played in the Segunda B with the Deportivo academy team and also made a few senior team appearances.
The Nigeria international agreed the loan move to get first team action and improve his game according to his national team Manager, Gernot Rohr.
On Thursday, Uzoho tweeted a photo of his training session with the caption:
First day at work

The youngster was named in Nigeria’s 24-man squad for next month’s 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Seychelles and is expected to be named first choice by Rohr.
