Francis Odinaka Uzoho, known simply as Francis in Spain, is a Nigerian professional footballer who plays for Spanish club Deportivo de La Coruna as a goalkeeper.

Born in Nwangele, Uzoho joined Qatari Aspire Academy in 2013, aged 14; initially a forward, he was converted into a goalkeeper after being deemed "too slow" at the age of 12. In 2016, after impressing on a tournament in Barcelona, he joined Deportivo de La Coruna's Juvenil squad. Age rules meant that Uzoho could only become available to sign a contract with Depor in January 2017. Promoted to the reserve team ahead of the 2017–18 season, he made his senior debut on 10 September. Uzoho made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 15 October 2017.

Uzoho represented Nigeria under-17s at the 2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup. Aged only 14, he was an immediate backup to Dele Alampasu. In October 2017 Uzoho received his first call-up to the Nigerian senior squad.<\/P>","e_index":4};
