Nwakali makes EFL debut for Barnsley

A football player recently made his debut in the English Football League playing for Barnsley in a match against Shrewsbury Town, which ended in a 2-0 victory for Barnsley.

This player, a former winner of the 2015 Fifa U17 World Cup, had joined Arsenal but faced challenges with work permits, leading to loan spells in the Netherlands and Portugal before parting ways with the English club in 2019.

Returning to England in a recent transfer window, he signed a three-year deal with Barnsley but struggled to secure a spot in the starting lineup due to fitness issues.

However, he was included in the matchday squad for the game against Shrewsbury Town, coming on as a substitute in stoppage time.
