Al Masry forward, Jude Aneke is keen to earn a recall to the Nigerian national team following his good form in the Egyptian Premier League.
.
Aneke, who attained legendary status in November 2011, after he broke the one-year-old record of Ahmed Musa by scoring 20 goals in the Nigerian top flight, was subsequently called up to the Super Eagles squad as a late replacement for Peter Odemwingie a month later.
.
The 22-year-old has yet to add to his solitary cap but is keen for a recall from current coach, Stephen Keshi who continues his project with the African champions.
.
"It is the dream of every player to don the colours of his country and I am no exception. It was a dream to have played for my country in that friendly game against Zambia in Kaduna and I will like to do it again," Aneke said.
.
Blessed with intelligence and a great turn of pace, Aneke terrorised defences during his time in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) where he played for Kaduna United and Warri Wolves between 2010 and 2012.
.
He is now looking to announce his presence in the Arab nation after a slow start occasioned by a toe injury.
.
"I had a toe injury and missed the first four games of the season. However, I have played the last three games and I scored for my club in our game against Ismaily on February 15. I know I will score more goals this season because I have been improving with each passing game," he added.
.
The forward concluded by praising current Nigeria coach, Keshi for leading the Super Eagles to glory at the 2013 Afcon.
.
"Very few people gave him and the national team a chance but he proved he is a man that understands the game.
.
"I saw these qualities when I played under him in that game against Zambia. He praised me after that match and said I did well despite coming on as a substitute.
.
"I was also told he referred to me as a striker with the qualities of the late Rashidi Yekini and I hope to get another chance to prove him right," stated Aneke, who is on loan to El-Dakhleya from Al Masry.

If Stephen Keshi deems it fit to call him back i don't think that would be a problem. If he plays well, he would be called
