"IT'S GREAT TO BE BACK!" - Bright Dike

Toronto FC striker Bright Dike has said that he is delighted to return to the Super Eagles after a long absence.   
Dike, who missed the final cut to the 2013 AFCON and then suffered a long-term knee injury, was a late replacement for injured Heerenveen striker Uche Nwofor. 
  
The hefty hitman said he missed the Eagles and was like being away from his family. 
  
"I am excited to be back in the Eagles. It's like when someone is away from his family and then comes back to them, it is always a great feeling. Whenever I put on the green and white jersey, I do it with pride," Dike revealed.
  
"I have had the first training (Tuesday evening) and it went well." 
  
He added: “I will give 100% to ensure Nigeria are in Brazil for the World Cup.” 
  
The former Portland Timbers striker made his debut on November 14, 2012, in a 3-1 victory over Venezuela in a friendly at Marlins Park in Miami, Florida, USA. 
  
Dike scored his first goal for Nigeria in a 1-1 draw in another friendly against Catalonia.
