For a while now, its been clear that the young lad would be a top talent, and has been practicing since the age of five.
At the age of eight, Amazing Kid Eche began putting in more time to develop and perfect his freestyling skills after being inspired by videos of world famous footballers.
In order to reach a record breaking standard, Eche finds time to practice every single morning before school, and he set his sights on attempting the Guinness World Records title for the most consecutive football (soccer) touches in one minute while balancing a football on the head to prove to other young Nigerians that anything is possible through self-belief and dedication.https://afb16112179a3c4cc39491455762f827.safeframe.googlesyndication.com/safeframe/1-0-37/html/container.html

That is no mean feat for a young lad.
