Concern is mounting in Nigerian football after leading scorer Uche Collins was reported missing, with his club Katsina United F.C. confirming they have had no contact with the striker since late February.
Collins was last seen on February 22 during a home fixture between Katsina United and Enugu Rangers in the Nigeria Professional Football League. According to club officials, the forward disappeared shortly after the match and has not been reachable since, raising serious concerns over his safety and whereabouts.
The club revealed that several attempts to reach the player have proven unsuccessful. With no information about his location, Katsina United say they are now preparing to take legal action as they seek clarity over the unexplained situation.
Collins’ sudden disappearance has sent shockwaves through the Nigerian football community, particularly given his impressive form this season which saw him emerge as the league’s top scorer. As uncertainty grows, supporters and officials alike are hoping for answers — and most importantly, for the striker to be found safe.
