'It was not premeditated' - Linkopings coach Unogard explains how he signed three Nigerians

Linkopings coach Olof Unogard has revealed that there was no premeditation in his signings of Nigeria internationals Ebere Orji, Uchenna Kanu and Chinaza Uchendu for the 2019-20 season.

Orji joined Linkopings from Umea in February after she played a key role in their Elitettan triumph and promotion to the Damallsvenskan in the 2019 season, in which she scored 11 goals in 26 games.

Kanu and Uchendu joined their compatriot Orji at the Swedish club after breaking ties with Spanish Primera Iberdrola outfit Sevilla and Portuguese side Sporting Braga, respectively, earlier this month.
