Nigerian returns to Isreal

Lille goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama has joined Maccabi Tel-Aviv on a season-long loan, after falling down the pecking order at the French club. The Nigerian international arrived in northern France last summer from Maccabi's fierce rivals Hapoel. However, the move has so far failed to work out with the 29-year-old only playing three games. Last season Enyeama was Lille's second keeper behind former French international Mickael Landreau. Lille coach Rudi Garcia has recently acquired Steeve Elana from Brest, pushing Enyeama to third-choice keeper.
