Nwakali has had a roller-coaster profession. He rose to world reckoning after successful the Golden Ball award on the 2015 under-17 World Cup, the identical competitors that Victor Osimhen rose from.

Nwakali then sealed a transfer to English Premier League membership Arsenal in 2016. Sadly, he didn’t reduce it on the membership regardless of completely different transfers to MVV Maastricht, VVV Venlo, and Porto B.

Nwakali then joined Spanish membership Huesca in 2019. There, he struggled because the membership bought relegated from La Liga in his first season. Then, he needed to be a part of Alcorcon in a six-month mortgage deal in his second season.

Upon his return to Huesca in his third season, the Tremendous Eagle star began getting minutes, however his relationship with the crew broke down halfway into the marketing campaign after returning late from the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.
