Super Eagles strikers Victor Osimhen and Paul Onuachu have set the Turkish Super Lig alight with goals on another weekend of outstanding Nigerian displays across the world.
5.Olanrewaju Kayode
The former Super Eagles striker scored his 17th goal of the season for his club Erokspor to draw 1-1 at home with Bandirmaspor. This followed his hat-trick in the previous game against Bodrumpsor. Kayode, 32, has certainly turned the corner after a most turbulent personal life in the past few years. His goals now look set to lift Erokspor to the Turkish Super Lig by the end of the season. They are third in the standings with 63 points from 30 matches and have a game in hand.
4.Arthur Okonkwo
The former Arsenal Academy goalkeeper was the official Man of the Match for Wrexham to win the Battle of Wales in the English Championship against Swansea 2-0. He posted his 11th clean sheet of the season after he pulled off several big saves to deny Swansea in this derby. He has got FIFA clearance to now play for the Super Eagles and could even get his first call-up for the friendlies against Jordan and Iran later this month.
3.Terem Moffi
The Super Eagles striker is gradually finding his feet at FC Porto after he scored his second goal for the Portuguese league leaders in the UEFA Europa League. Porto won 2-1 at German Bundesliga club Stuttgart to take a big advantage into the home leg of this Round of 16 tie. For Moffi, the next few weeks are most crucial for his career as he does not have a future at Ligue 1 club OGC Nice and so the need to find a new club by the end of the season.
2.Paul Onuachu
The giant Super Eagles striker made history as the first Trabzonspor player to score in 10 straight games courtesy of his match winner against Rizespor. He has now fired 21 goals to remain as the leading scorer in the Turkish Super Lig with eight rounds of matches to the end of the regular season. He has flourished again at Trabzonspor, who are now pushing for second place on the table with Fenerbache. Both teams are on 57 points after 26 matches with Fenerbache only having the edge on goals difference.

1.Victor Osimhen
Galatasaray are flying in both the UEFA Champions League and the Super Lig thanks to their Nigerian star. In midweek, he assisted for the goal that again sunk Premier League champions Liverpool in the Champions League for the second time this season. He then followed that up with his 12th goal in the Super Lig as Galatasaray thumped city rivals Istanbul Basaksehir 3-0. This will certainly lift the confidence of the Turkish champions in their rematch at Liverpool Wednesday night. Osimhen has proved to be money well spent by Galatasaray and it is now looking more likely that in the summer the Turkish giants will be happy to sell for a handsome profit. Who has 150 million euros to pay for a proven goal scorer in Europe?
