Nigeria Under-23 forward Daniel Uchechi says he has not really achieved his aim of moving clubs from Leicester City to Sheffield Wednesday.
Uchechi told KickOffNigeria.com that the real reason he joined his current club was to get more playing time ahead of the January transfer window.
"I needed more playing time ahead of the January transfer window and that is simply why I made that change.
"The second reason was to get some match fitness because there was no point really staying at Leicester if I wasn't going to play games.
"Again, many people do not know that Sheffield is really a big club. Up till a few years ago they were in the Premiership so I needed more games at a good club."
However, Uchechi quite admits that he has not achieved his aim of going to Sheffield.
"Sadly, I found out that League One is not a football playing league. It's tougher than it is made out to be. You have to be well equipped physically to succeed there so I have not really achieved my aim of coming here.
"We all know that Nigerians are more technical but League One and Championship is more like kick and follow and we are not well adapted to that system."
Uchechi was part of the Nigerian Olympic team who failed to qualify for the 2012 Olympic Games.
