Turkish League Veteran Tips Onuachu To Score 20 Goals This Season

By Sampson Adedeji

Turkish Super Lig veteran Fuat Capa has tipped Nigeria's Super Eagles striker Paul Onuachu to return 20 goals this season, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The Nigerian lanky attacker joined Super Lig club Trabzonspor this summer on loan from the English side Southampton.

Onuachu has since started relaunching of his career in Turkey on a good note, scoring in back-to-back games against Besiktas and Hatayaspor.

“He got off to a perfect start,” says Capa at Het Belang van Limburg. 

“I saw both matches. On his debut at home against Besiktas, he immediately scored his first goal - with his head. 

"He scored again against Hatayspor and also provided an assist.” And then the best Onuachu still has to come. You notice that he has hardly played since January. 

"He is not fit enough and cannot yet cope with playing for 90 minutes. It started the past two weeks, but had to be replaced each time.

 â€œWe all know that he is a good striker who can record impressive statistics. I dare not predict that he will score fifty goals. 

But I can see him scoring twenty times. Onuachu fits well in the Turkish league", he said.
