Super Eagles midfielder, Eddie Ogenyi Onazi, has been rated the best ball-winning midfielder in the Turkish Super Liga.
The Trabzonspor midfielder has turned heads this season with a series of impressive display and was in impeccable form in September when they took champions Galatasaray to the cleaners by thrashing them 4-0.
The Nigerian has so far won a total of 105 direct balls more than any other outfield player, a clear sign of his remarkable contributions.
When it comes to ball distribution, he ranks as the league’s fourth-best behind Istanbul’s duo of Alexandru Epureanu and Mahmut Tekdemir as well as Stephen Badji.
The Nigerian averages 60 successful passes per game and a successful completion rate of 85 %, a remarkable stat which has seen him help the club to sixth on the log.
He has also covered more ground duels than any other Trabzonspor player and is second in terms of interception per game.
Onazi has featured in 13 matches this season and has scored one goal.
