"Don't worry, there will be no problems again and I have also changed from Gbolahan Salami to Fuad Salami," he told a source. "I will keep myself under control. Keshi is one of the greatest coach I've worked with in my career, he is a great person. I must thank him so much."

He added: "I've dreamed of playing abroad since I was a child but my focus is on Warri Wolves and winning a World Cup place. Wearing the Nigeria jersey has always been my dream and now it has become reality. Now the World Cup is around the corner, which is the biggest competition in global football. I'm so fired up I can't wait to get started and win a place in the train.

Salami also reiterated his desire to remain to help his new club, Warri Wolves.
