Super Eagles striker Paul Onuachu has continued his red-hot scoring streak since returning from the Africa Cup of Nations, netting in every league appearance during that stretch to strengthen his position at the summit of the Turkish top-flight scoring chart, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.
His latest goal proved decisive, earning maximum points for Trabzonspor and further extending his lead in the race for the Süper Lig Golden Boot. The towering forward has been instrumental in keeping Trabzonspor’s ambitions alive with consistent and clinical performances in front of goal.
Despite enjoying a prolific campaign, Onuachu has not commanded the same level of media attention as fellow Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen, who also plays in Turkey and remains one of the league’s most high-profile figures.
In comments that many observers interpreted as a subtle swipe, Onuachu hinted that his achievements have been recorded without the benefit of significant publicity, seemingly drawing a quiet contrast with the spotlight surrounding his compatriot.
While such remarks are expected to reignite comparisons between the two Super Eagles forwards, Onuachu’s performances on the pitch continue to underline his importance. With each goal, he reinforces his influence at Trabzonspor and tightens his grip on the Golden Boot race.
