Kalu Tongololiki Mawakavamba Jawarapawara Uche (born 15 November 1982) is a Nigerian footballer who plays for Indian club FC Pune City as a forward or an attacking midfielder.[1]
He spent most of his professional career in Spain, mainly with Almería, with which he amassed La Liga totals of 117 games and 27 goals.
Uche made his debut for Nigeria on 21 June 2003, in an African Nations Cup qualifier against Angola, scoring in the process.[13] He represented the nation at the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations, going scoreless for the eventual third-placed team.
After a solid club season Uche was picked for that year's FIFA World Cup, in South Africa: on 17 June, against Greece, he opened the score from a free kick, but the Africans soon were reduced to ten men and lost 1–2.[14] In the third and last game he also scored the opener, eventually earning Nigeria's only point in the competition in a 2–2 draw against South Korea.[15]
