The Super Eagles’ goalkeeper, Carl Ikeme, has won his fight against Cancer of the Blood, Leukemia.

Carl was diagnosed with acute Leukemia in June 2017.

In a post he shared on his IG page, Carl announced that after a year of intense chemotherapy, he is in complete remission.

"After a tough year and intense chemotherapy throughout I would like to let everyone know I am in complete REMISSION. I still have hurdles to get over to be cured but I can hopefully now move forward with some normality. I would like to thank my family/friends to start with who have gone above and beyond for me The support I have received from Wolves/Nigeria, the football world and from people from all over the world has been hard to put into words. I can’t thank everyone at the Christie and heartlands hospital enough for their care!!!What next who knows... I’m just taking it a day at a time #Grateful #Remission"
