Kelechi Iheanacho is making a serious statement in Turkey. The Super Eagles striker scored twice again for Bursaspor as they came from behind to beat Manisa 2-1. That means Iheanacho has now scored in six consecutive league matches. His numbers are even more impressive: 8 goals and 2 assists in six league games. And the timing could not be better for Nigeria. Victor Osimhen is dealing with an injury, while Paul Onuachu has also been struggling with fitness ahead of Nigeria's AFCON 2027 qualifiers.
Suddenly, Iheanacho's incredible form cannot be ignored. But here is the big question: Should Eric Chelle bring Iheanacho back into the Super Eagles and make him one of Nigeria's main attacking options? Some will argue that he is playing in the Turkish second tier, so his goals should be taken with caution. Others will say you cannot ignore a striker who has scored in SIX straight games, regardless of the league.
Remember, this is the same Iheanacho who has previously delivered for Nigeria on the biggest stages. Is "Senior Man" finally back to his best? And if Osimhen is unavailable, would you trust Iheanacho to lead the Super Eagles attack? Iheanacho or Arokodare? Who should Chelle pick?
