Ogbene’s remarkable rise to the Premier League began five-and-a-half years ago when he embarked on a footballing odyssey that took him from Limerick FC and the League of Ireland to Luton Town FC.
Against all odds, the determined striker proved his worth, defying his former coach’s estimation of being “one in 200,000” by earning a coveted spot in the Premier League.
Ogbene expressed his delight at being there as a Premier League player and mentioned that his journey was special to him.
He recalled starting from Rotherham United, where he had spent four seasons and had achieved great things with some exceptional individuals.
However, when the opportunity to become a Luton Town player and feature in the Premier League emerged, Ogbene couldn’t resist the allure, exclaiming that featuring in the Premier League was everyone’s dream and that he was really happy for the opportunity.
Last season, Ogbene showcased his immense talent by netting nine goals and providing four assists across various competitions, playing a crucial role in Rotherham United’s 19th-place finish in the Championship.
His impressive performances caught the attention of football enthusiasts and club scouts alike, culminating in his well-deserved move to Luton Town.
Notably, Ogbene etched his name in history by becoming the first African player to represent the Republic of Ireland when he earned his first cap in June 2021.
Since then, he has exhibited his prowess on the international stage, scoring four goals in 15 appearances for the Boys in Green.
Luton Town FC’s capture of Chiedozie Ogbene signifies the club’s ambition to make an impact in the Premier League.
With his speed, agility, and goal-scoring ability, Ogbene is poised to become a vital asset for the team.
The Nigerian-born striker’s arrival is expected to bolster Luton Town’s attacking lineup, bringing an added dimension to their gameplay.
