Official: Anglo-Nigerian Attacker Joins Middlesborough
Story by Jacobs Dunga
Former Watford FC striker Uche Ikpeazu has completed his move from Wycombe Wanderers to Middlesborough. The bulky attacker who scored six goals in 31 appearances for Wycombe last season has joined Neil Warnock’s side for the 2021/2022 season.
The reading FC youth product who failed to make a single appearance for the first team before going out on loan caught the eye of Warnock who watched from the sidelines as Uche scored past his Middlesborough side in their matchup in the just-concluded season.
“I’ve always liked Uche back to when he was at Hearts and I watched him a few times.
“He looks raw at times but he’s so keen and dedicated wherever he plays and I think the fans will get behind him because he’s such a 100% player.
“I was impressed in my meetings with him with his dedication and desire to do well for Middlesbrough.
I’m looking forward to working with him.
The 26-year-old striker will be looking to repay the faith of the coach with goals when the season commences.
