Nwoke was on the verge of taking up a contract with Pieta Hotspurs in 2005, but the deal fell through.[2]
Attracting foreign interest through his time with Msida,[3] the Nigerian concluded a move to Qormi in 2011,[4] bagging four goals in his first 2 outings[1] and earning the Player of the Month award for January[5] before parting ways with the club in early 2012.[6]
