Nigerian midfielder, Kelechi Nwakali is eagerly anticipating the start of 2020/2021 Laliga Santander on Friday when compatriot, Ramon Azeez’s Granada host Athletic Bilbao before his club face Villarreal on Sunday.
Action across Europe’s top 5 leagues is set to get back underway this very month with strict contingency measures still in place due to the on-going coronavirus pandemic.
And just like the Premier League which starts this weekend, the 2020/21 La Liga Santander campaign will kick off on September 11 while it comes to an end on May 23, 2021.
Nwakali has expressed his readiness for the new season in spain as Huesca roll off their campaign against Samuel Chukwueze’s Villareal at Estadio de la Ceramica on Sunday.
The former took to the social media to express his readiness for the new season, posting on his Instagram handle: “Preseason is over, here comes the season,” Nwakali wrote.

Nwakali believes it is the beginning of a new chapter for him in his football career after helping his club, Huesca to secure promotion into the La Liga Santander last term.
Apart from moving into the Spanish top-flight from the second division, Huesca also won the Segunda SmartBank title after beating Sporting Gijon 1-0 away in the final game.
Nwakali played the entire game which was his fifth appearance of the 2019/20 season as Huesca beat Gijon away from home to record a dramatic takeover of the title from Cadiz.

It has taken you a long time of blood and sweat to come this far brother. I thank God for you. Now this is the time to unleash that beast inside of you and prove every doubter wrong. I have no doubt you can do it. Go KC !!!!. Wishing u all the best and praying for you.
Pogba is not better dan you kelechi, go and become africa latest yaya toure. The last time i saw you at the murtala muhamed airport, i told you that we are waiting for you to take after obi mikel, u smiled and say you will do your best. Now the chance is there to become great. How do you do that? Increase your reaction time, which i noticed its a bit too slow for top european league! Priotise the easiest decisions before the difficult ones, your shots and passes are well accurate enough so no question about that. But try to adapt the 2 touch mentality as u can see there is no time to look around with the ball(thats where etebo is having difficulties playing from deep midfield) allways anticipate ur decision befor you gets the ball) if you playing against sharp guys like osihmen, ngolo kante or Ndidi they wont give you that chance to make elephants movements. So its either you are runing forward with the ball or you release it quickly not morethan 2 touches abeg bcos any blunder you make can be punishable by goal against you. Since etebo blunder against ukraine *equaliser* thinking with the ball from deep as if he was planning to write a letter from his office, u see how Rohr is gradualy discharging him! Finally you have to be more energetic and agressive. If you do well. I promise you barcelona might found the new xavi in you. Wish u good luck.
Very True. He needs to improve his pace.Soon he will be the best in our attacking midfield.
