Super Eagles midfielder Wilfred Ndidi has given a car to his former youth coach, Nduka Ugbade, as a special thank-you gift.

Nduka Ugbade, a past coach of Nigeria’s U-17 national team and an important mentor to Ndidi in his early football years, received the gift with joy and gratitude.

A video shows Ndidi handing over the keys to a white SUV, followed by a heartfelt hug between the footballer and the emotional coach.

Over the years, Ndidi has publicly recognized Ugbade’s role in shaping his football career, especially during his early days.

In March 2023, Ndidi visited the Golden Eaglets in Abuja, where he met Ugbade again and openly thanked him, calling him a key part of his football journey.
