Prolific 19 year old Nigerian forward Henry Onyekuru who is reportedly high on the radar of German Bundesliga side Hoffeinheim, did his reputation a whole lot of good with his 4th goal in 9 games for Eupen in Belgium.

Onyekuru scored the opening goal in as AS Eupen crash to a 1-4 loss at home to Royal Excel Mouscron in a league game decided at the Kehrwegstadion.

He now has 4 goals from the first nine games of the season in Belgium, two short of his total of 6 goals last season from 19 games while they were in the second division.

The Nigerian is one of the shining light of the newly promoted Belgian side, who are currently finding it hard to adjust to life in the top division as they are currently placed 15th on the 16 team table.

Eupen also has two other Nigerians on their books in Anthony Bassey and Odeni George Jamabo but the duo have made 6 and 1 appearances this season respectively.

Victor Moses who picked up the man of the match award in Chelsea’s 2-0 win away to Hull City has revealed his thoughts on the decision of manager Antonio Conte, to play him as a wing back.

The use of the wing-back has been gaining more prominence in recent years, and Conte is no stranger to the philosophy, having deployed a similarly attack-minded Emanuele Giaccherini to great success in a similar position for his Italy team during their impressive Euro 2016 campaign.

The Nigeria international looked set to leave South-West London in the past, having been shipped out on loan to Liverpool, Stoke City, and West Ham in successive seasons following his first season at Stamford Bridge in 2012/13. But since the arrival of the innovative Italian, Antonio Conte, the 25 year old winger has been getting more game time, whilst being invented as a wing-back

Last season for West Ham, Moses scored one goal and made one assist in 21 appearances. This season, in just 153 minutes of football, he’s already equalled his scoring tally from 2015/16 and created four chances – all from a more withdrawn position.

“There is a lot to do, but I have to graft in, go up and down and I kind of enjoy it – getting a lot of one-on-one situations,” the industrious winger said after his side’s 2-0 win away to Hull City.

From his role as a wing back he has won an impressive 67% of his tackles as a wing back. A stat that shows he has adapted to his new role with ease since the start of the season in England.

Kingsley Madu was once again an unused substitute for his new side Zulte-Waregem in their 1-1 draw against Sporting Chaleroi.

20 year old Madu is among the players called up by coach of the Nigeria national team Gernot Rohr for next weekend World Cup 2018 qualifiers against Zambia in Ndola.

He is expected to arrive the team camp on Monday from his base in Belgium, but the left full back will be short of match practice as the last time he played competitive football was six weeks ago.

Madu’s last involvement in a competitive game was for his former side AS Trencin against Zilina on the 28 of September, a game they lost 4-0 shortly before his move to Zulte-Waregem.

At Zulte Waregem, he has made the match day squad but he is yet to play a single game for his new side, leaving many to question his inclusion in the team, same as that of Musa Mohammed who plays for Istanbul Basaksehir in Turkey.

Former Super Eagles forward Ike Uche found the back of the net for his second division side Gimnastic Tarragona on the day of Nigeria’s independence in their 1-1 draw with Sevilla Atletico.

Uche posted a happy 56th anniversary to Nigeria on her independence day celebration, before scoring his second goal from 7 league games for Gimnastic since his move this summer.

The 32 year old endured a barren spell in front of goal in seven games before breaking the duck today for struggling Gimnastic, who are placed 22nd in the second division league in Spain.

His career has tailed off a bit after a shock move to Tigres UANL of Mexico from Spanish La-Liga side Villarreal. He failed to settle down in Mexico and returned to Spain six months later on a loan deal to Malaga.

While on loan at Malaga last season, he failed to score in the three games he played for the team in the La-Liga, which made them turn down the option of making his loan deal permanent.

Former Nigeria youth international Alhaji Gero ended a barren spell in front of goal with a brace for Swedish side Ostersunds FK in their 6-2 rout over Falkenberg.

Gero who represented Nigeria at the 2013 U-20 World Cup struck two goals within a space of two minutes, in the 43rd and 45th minute respectively to give his side a commanding 3-1 lead going into the half time break.

His last league goal came over a year ago, while he was still at Danish side Viborg, where he netted in their 3-0 thrashing of Bronshoj on the 30th of March 2015.

Since then the 22 year old has been struggling in front with no goal to show in the 8 games he played for Viborg when they got relegated before his move to Ostersunds FK.

He endured a goal drought that lasted 16 games before finally scoring in the 17th as his team romped to a big win over Falkenberg.

John Owoeri scored his 11th goal of the season in Sweden as his team Hacken BK slumped to a 2-4 loss to Malmo FF in a league game played at the Bravida Arena.

Owoeri drew his side level with his 11th of the season in the 15th minute to bring scores back to 1-1 for his side before they later took the lead courtesy of Alexander Farnerud.

However they let their lead and went into the half time break level at 2-2 with Malmo before a second half capitulation after they were reduced to 10 men saw them lose 2-4.

The former Feyernoord forward is having his best season in front of goal in Sweden since moving to the league in 2013, where he starred for Atvidaberg for three seasons scoring a total of 17 goals.

He joined Hacken in January and in 21 games, he is just six goals shy of his overall tally for Atvidaberg in three seasons, a sign of the purple patch he has hit in front of goal this season.

Former Granada forward Isacc Success scored his first goal for Watford in their 2-2 draw against Bournemouth, after coming on as a second half substitute for fellow Nigerian Odion Ighalo.

Success who was called up to the Nigeria national team for the first time ahead of next weekend World Cup 2018 qualifiers against Zambia in Ndola, met a left sided cross from Jose Holebas with a flick header past Artur Boruc in goal for Bournemouth.

The header, his first since his big money move helped his team picked up a point as it pegged the scores to 2-2, which saved them from losing all three points in front of their fans at Vicarage Road.

Success threw the crowd at Vicarage Road into a frenzy when he celebrated with the “Dab” dance move, usually the trademark of Manchester United big money man Paul Pogba.

Vicarage Road responded with chants of Success can dab, what has Pogba got over him while users of social media network twitter also got in on the act by posting comments about the celebrations.

Watford record buy Isacc Success who was handed a maiden call up by Nigeria ahead of next weekend World Cup 2018 qualifiers against Zambia, scored his first goal for his side as they battle to a 2-2 draw against Bournemouth.

Success signed from Granada this summer by Watford for a fee in excess of £15 million scored ten minutes after replacing fellow Nigerian Odion Ighalo in the 55th minute.

His goal was two minutes after Bournemouth took the lead through Joshua King and it was enough to help them pick up a point at their home ground Vicarage road.

It has taken a while for the former Nigeria youth international to settle down to life in his new surroundings, but in the last few weeks he has showed signs that he is getting back to his best shape.

An injury picked up during pre season made him missed most of their games, hence a slow start to life in the English Premier League after three full seasons in the La-Liga with Granada.

Nigeria winger Victor Moses will play in a new role for Chelsea against Hull City after being named in the starting line up by coach Antonio Conte. His first league start for the team since 2013.

The last time Moses started a game for Chelsea in the league was on the 11th of May 2013 when they defeated Aston Villa 2-1 in a league tie at Villa Park under Rafa Benitez.

He has since endured three different loan spells at Liverpool, Stoke City and West Ham respectively before the appointment of Conte who appears to have faith in the talent of the 25 year old.

Conte has even gone ahead to hand him a role behind main striker Diego Costa, picking the winger ahead of the likes of Oscar and Fabregas who are usually played in the role the Nigerian will occupy against Hull City.

Chelsea are hoping to halt a loss of two consecutive games in the league against Hull City this evening at the KCOM Stadium. The home ground of Hull City who have also suffered a dip in form after a fine start to the season.
