Collins: ‘It’s a dream come true’ to play for Super Eagles

Paderborn full-back Jamilu Collins has expressed his delight to represent Nigeria, saying it is a dream come true for him.

The 25-year-old made his international debut for the Super Eagles in a friendly against Liberia in September 2018 and has since become a regular player for the West Africans.

Collins, who has 11 caps for the three-time African champions, was part of Gernot Rohr’s squad that finished third at the Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt.
