Frank Egharevba (born December 15, 1985 in Benin City ) is a Nigerian - Austrian football player . In winter 2017 he moved to the regional league Burgenland for SV Wimpassing.

Club career

Born in 1985 in Nigeria, Egharevba came to Austria with his family in 1991. In his youth he played for the IC favorites before he ventured abroad to join the Ukrainian club Karpaty Lviv in 2003 .

After a year at Karpaty in which he did not make the breakthrough and only in youth and B-team of the club was used, it was to the Lviv neighboring Tomaszów Lubelski to Tomasovia given. He was then able to prevail at the Polish fourth division team at the time and scored ten goals in the first half of the 2004/05 season. As a result, a change to the then Polish first division club Górnik Zabrze narrowly failed , before he was awarded to the traditional club Widzew Łódź in the second Polish division for half a year with a purchase option .

The move to Widzew then turned out to be a mutual misunderstanding. Egharevba did not manage to integrate into the team and was, among other things, racially attacked by his own fans. In total, he came to only four league appearances without scoring and three appearances in the promotion playoff with one goal. At the end of the season, Widzew did not take the purchase option and Egharevba switched back to Tomasovia .

As a result, he scored three goals for Tomasovia in the autumn season of the 2005/2006 season before he was injured and returned to Austria for treatment. In December 2005 his contract ran out, whereupon he was tested by the then Polish second division club Śląsk Wrocław and subsequently committed.

With seven goals in eleven preparation games, he then started furius in his commitment to Śląsk. As a result, he was used in nine league games up to May 2006 and was able to score two goals before a controversy with his teammate Tomasz Rudolf prematurely ended his career in Poland. After this scandal at Śląsk, Egharevba left Poland and moved to Switzerland to the third division club FC Naters .

At the club supervised by player- coach Dejan Marković , he then advanced to become a key figure in the team. Although he was only eligible to play from the fifth round, he scored 16 goals in 26 missions and was third on the top scorer list.

In the 2006/07 season he came through the mediation of Vladimir Jugović as one of only a few unestablished players to the then financial croesus of the Austrian First League , the SK Schwadorf . In the Schwadorfer squad with players like Marek Kincl , Jozef Valachovič , Anton Ehmann , Roman Mählich , Michael Wagner or Marcus Pürk , Egharevba, who was practically unknown in Austria at the time despite his citizenship, was only perceived by the media as a marginal phenomenon and almost completely ignored in the reporting. After a false start with two defeats in the beginning and the change of coach from Attila Sekerlioglu to Bernd Krauss , Egharevba surprisingly achieved a regular place early in the season and developed into the only bright spot of a partly inferior Schwadorfer team. While the big earners like Kincl or Bojan Filipović disappointed, he made it to the most used player with 18 appearances and with eight goals to the top of the internal club goalscorer list. During the winter break, he caused a bit of a scandal when he went on holiday to Nigeria on his own instead of having a previously inflicted adductor injury treated. When he returned from vacation with the untreated injury, he had to stop all preparation due to his convalescence and fell out of favor with the newly appointed coach Heinz Peischl . Shortly before the start of his vacation, President Richard Trenkwalder had the option of extending his contract until the summer of 2010. After suffering an injury, he had lost his regular place and was only used six times by the end of the season.

Nevertheless, after the merger between Schwadorf and Admira to form the renamed FC Admira Wacker Mödling, he was one of the few Schwadorfer players who were also taken to the new club. Under Peischl he was then used in the first four games of the season at the new club, before it was replaced by Walter Schachner . This put no more value on Egharevba and banished him to the second team based in the Regionalliga Ost . After five goals in eight games until the winter break, Egharevba urged him to go back to FC Naters on loan, which Admira allowed.

Back in Naters, he was able to build on previous strong performances and with seven goals in 14 season appearances even finished second in the club's internal goalscorer list after six months. With tenth place, however, Naters clearly missed promotion to the Challenge League , whereupon he returned to Admira. As a result, his contract was terminated by mutual agreement and Egharevba moved to the Serbian SuperLiga for FK Javor Ivanjica . After half a year with only one goal, however, his contract was terminated prematurely with Javor.

After six months without a club, he signed with the Austrian second division club SC Austria Lustenau . Shortly after the contract was signed, the move threatened to fail, as Egharevba showed signs of jaundice , which, however, was cleared up after a medical examination. On the fourth match day in a 4-0 home win against SKN St. Pölten , he then scored his first goal for Lustenau. But in the summer he moved on to the fourth division club SV Würmla .

On January 23, 2015, there was a scandal in the team training of SV Würmlas: For unknown reasons, Egharevba may have completely blown the fuses and attacked goalie Ertan Uzun with his fists . As a result Egharevba was thrown off the team in the words of coach Mario Handl "He does not come!" . After only six months at SV Stripfing , Würmla signed Egharevba again, whereupon Uzun left the club.

National team

Theoretically eligible to play for Austria and Nigeria, so far there has only been an interest in calling the player into a national team on the part of his country of birth. Egharevba himself also showed his willingness to run for Nigeria, but has not yet been called up.
