Victor Osimhen has continued to catch the eye with his goals and all-action performance for table-topping Napoli in the Italian Serie A. It is therefore no surprise that he has been described as “a moving train”.

The youngster has continued to carry Hammarby on his powerful shoulders after he fired his seventh goal and the match winner against AIK. He netted the only goal of the game on his return to the starting XI and it helped his club snap out of a two-game winless run. Should we expect him to make the big transfer from Sweden in January?
4.Chidera Ejuke
Super Eagles winger justified his Player of the Month awards by scoring the winning goal for CSKA Moscow at Ural. It was a curling effort in the second half. It was his third goal in the Russian league and CSKA Moscow are now fourth in the standings, three points behind champions and leaders Zenit.
3.Peter Olayinka
The 25-year-old winger scored his first goal in the league this season as Slavia Prague smashed past Slovan Liberec 3-1. His club, who last season won a league and cup double, are now third on the league table.
2.Taiwo Awoniyi
After he made his long-awaited Super Eagles earlier this month, the striker returned to the Bundesliga to grab his sixth goal in a 2-0 win against Wolfsburg for Union Berlin to continue their climb to the top of the standings in Germany. Awoniyi has now scored nine goals in all competitions since his transfer from Liverpool in the summer.

There is no stopping this man in a Napoli shirt, whether blue, red or black, after his header ensured the Italian club extended their 100% record in Serie A with a narrow home win over a battling Torino. Napoli proudly stay top of the table with 24 points from eight matches, while their Nigeria striker has now fired five goals, already half of what he achieved all of last season. He has scored eight goals in his last seven matches.
