Former Super Eagles captain, Vincent Enyeama, has insisted there was no chance of him leaving Lille this summer, because it is his “home”.
The goalkeeper has signed a two-year extension with the Ligue 1 club, a deal that ties him to the club until 2019.
Enyeama, who signed for Lille in 2011 and has made 130 appearances in all competitions, revealed that he snubbed offers from elsewhere, to remain at Stade Pierre-Mauroy.
“I am very happy to extend my contract with Lille, a club I call home,” the 33-year-old told BBC Sport.
“I love the family atmosphere here and would like to thank the club for the incredible confidence they have placed in me since I joined five years ago.
“Despite receiving interesting offers from elsewhere, I never thought for a second that money comes before happiness hence my decision to stay here.
“I will continue to give my all, along with my teammates, to bring joy and success to our supporters who have all passionately stood by us.”
