Ikeme Makes Strong Return To Football After Cancer Scare

Former Super Eagles goalkeeper Carl Ikeme has finally got a new job as he resumed his television punditry role for BT Sports in the Premier League on Saturday.

This sad after he took the Mike when Wolves defeated Leicester City 4-3 at the Molineux Stadium on Saturday.

Recall that the 32-year-old Carl Ikeme spent his entire career at Wolves, making 207 appearances across all competitions.

He was diagnosed with acute leukaemia in July 2017 after returning abnormal blood tests during a routine pre-season check-up.

Wolves won the English Championship title and returned to the Premier League, but Ikeme played no part due to his ill-health and subsequent treatment.

Ikeme, who was in complete remission after a tough year and intense chemotherapy, finally announced his retirement from football on medical grounds on July 27, 2018.

Wolverhampton emerged winners in the game.
