SCORENigeria has gathered that Trabzonspor striker Paul Onuachu will be recalled by the Super Eagles for the 2025 AFCON, which kicks off later this month in Morocco.
Coach Eric Chelle sees Onauchu as a good option for the injury-prone Victor Osimhen after younger strikers failed to fire at last month’s World Cup Playoffs in Morocco.
Onuachu is the leading scorer in the Turkish Super Lig with 11 goals.
He last featured for the Super Eagles in June 2024 in a 2026 World Cup qualifier against Benin in Abidjan.
He was also drafted as a late replacement for the 2023 AFCON.
Critics said the giant striker has failed to bring his goals from his club to the national team.
