Former Nigeria U17 ace, Christian Ebere, has added a major honour to his growing European career by securing the Liga AUF Uruguaya title with his club, Club Nacional de Football.

The 27-year-old, who has been a consistent with goal scoring, assists and top performance after joining the team from Plaza Colonia in 2024 played a crucial role in the midfield as the team clinched the league championship in a dramatic final stretch of the 2025 season as he scored the decisive goal in extra time to hand the team win over Peñarol on aggregate.

The triumph in Uruguay marks a significant achievement in Ebere’s professional journey, which began in Nigeria after winning the U17 World Cup and cut across Brazilian League before arriving in Uruguay in 2023.

The league title celebration is expected to be a major event in Club Nacional de Football, honouring the team and the critical role played by their Nigerian talisman.
