19 year old Onyekuru was awarded the Man of the Match award for his display, which earned his side a vital away win and moved them up to 11th on the log standings in Belgium.

The forward who went on strike to push a move to Scottish champions Celtic in January is widely tipped to depart the team this summer, and the Scottish side will reportedly face competition from English giants Liverpool for his signature.
