Kelechi Iheanacho again took another chance handed him by Leicester City to prove his class in the Premier League, while there were Nigerian goals through David Okereke and Paul Onuachu in Belgium.
5.Olanrewaju Kayode
There is no stopping the striker in Turkey after he netted his eighth goal in the Super Lig. He scored for Gaziantep FK in a 1-1 Yeni Malatyaspor. Kayode will most certainly not be short of suitors in Turkey and beyond going by his form.
4.Paul Onuachu
Onuachu has now scored seven goals in 15 league appearances after his strike in a 2-1 win over KAS Eupen, but Belgian champions Genk are eighth on the table and two places outside the playoffs bracket.
3.David Okereke
The former Abuja Football College star fired a brace for Club Brugge to a 4-0 spanking of Zulte Waregem. He has now scored nine goals in the league amid speculations about his future. His team remain top of the table on 49 points from 20 matches, 10 points clear of closest rivals KAA Gent.
2.Simeon Nwankwo
‘Simy’ scored his eighth goal in the Italian Serie B as Crotone continue their push to return to the top flight. Last season, he scored 14 goals in the Italian second division.
1.Kelechi Iheanacho
The striker justified another rare start in the Premier League by scoring his third league goal for Leicester City in a 2-1 win over troubled West Ham. He has now scored a total of five goals in all competitions this season.
