Uchechi still has more to offer Dons

Daniel Uchechi insists he has plenty more to offer at Aberdeen once fully match-fit.

The Nigerian striker made his debut in the William Hill Scottish Cup replay against Queen of the South, before coming off the bench again in Sunday’s goalless draw against St Johnstone in the Clydesdale Bank Premier League.

He told RedTV: “Personally, there is a challenge for me because I know now what standard and level is expected of me and I am just glad I am getting the minutes to get to the fitness level required.

“My goal is to get back to full fitness and, once I get there, I think the rest will come in terms of getting the ball and doing more with it. When I come on, I’m expected to do as much as I can and to help the team, which I will do whenever I get the chance to play.”

Uchechi signed initially until the end of the season when he arrived at Pittodrie on transfer deadline day, with a further two-year option.

He added: “My aim is to try and get in the team and playing regularly and when I do that, hopefully I will impress. When I am playing I am not thinking about the contract, I just want to get the best out of myself. I know what I can do and I am trying hard to achieve that goal of producing what I am capable of on the football pitch.”
