Kelechi Iheanacho has been in top form in the Turkish Lig, scoring his 16th goal in 12 matches for Bursaspor. The Nigerian striker scored the third goal for his team in a 4-2 victory over Keciorengucu, propelling Bursaspor to the top of the Turkish second division with 28 points from 12 matches. Iheanacho's performance has increased his chances of making the Nigerian national team's 2027 AFCON double-header against Tanzania.
Meanwhile, Cyriel Dessers, another Nigerian forward, is making waves in Greece after scoring four straight goals for Panathinaikos. The striker, who was initially omitted from the Super Eagles final squad due to injury, not only won the match for Panathinaikos in a 1-0 victory over Volos but also netted again in a UEFA Conference League game.
Lastly, Tolu Arokodare, a Nigerian striker in the Dutch Eredivise, scored his fifth league goal and ninth in all competitions for Ajax. His performance secured a 2-1 win against Sparta Rotterdam and places him in a good position for a possible permanent transfer to Ajax.
