Trabzonspor striker Paul Onuachu has been voted Turkish Super Lig Player of the Month for October, reports Completesports.com.
Onuachu beat eight other players to the individual honour.
Rafa Silva, Andre Onana, Milan Skriniar, Marco Asensio, Orkun Kokcu, Ederson Moraes, Wilfred Singo, and Davinson Sanchez were the other players nominated for the award.
Onuachu registered two goals and one assist in three league outings for Trabzonspor during the month under review.
The Black Sea Storm were unbeaten in October with two wins and one draw.
It would be recalled that the Nigeria international has won the Goal of the Month award twice this season.
The 31-year-old has scored seven goals, and provided one assist in 11 league appearances for Trabzonspor in the current campaign.

THE NEXT MAJOR FOCUS POINT**
AS CRUCIAL WORLD CUP QUALIFIERS PLAY-OFF IS GETTING CLOSER DAY BY DAY. IF WE TRUELY WANT TO SUCCEED IN WINNING THE REST OF THE WORLD CUP QUALIFIERS PLAY-OFF MATCHES & QUALIFY FOR NEXT WORLD CUP., MY ADVICE FOR ERIC CHELLE AND HIS ASSISTANTS IS STRICTLY BASE ON WHO & WHICH PLAYERS TRUELY DESERVE TO BE INVITED FOR NEXT REMAINING WORLD CUP QUALIFIER PLAY-OFF MATCHES.
## ERIC CHELLE SHOULD GO & ANALYTICALLY WATCH THE PERFORMANCE OF LAST TEN CONSECUTIVE MATCHES EACH PLAYERS HAS PLAYED IN THE PAST FOR SUPER EAGLE TO REALLY KNOW WHICH PLAYERS ACTUALLY HAVE THE FIGHTING SPIRIT(aggressiveness), QUALITY, POTENTIAL & TRUELY DESERVE TO BE INVITED FOR NEXT REMAINING CRUCIAL WORLD CUP QUALIFIER PLAY-OFF MATCHES.
*** FOR INSTANCE:
@(1). the performance of the last ten matches BONIFACE played is ZERO. IT IS NOTHING TO WRITE HOME ABOUT.( despite not scoring goal, he doesn’t show good quality on the field of play) OLUWASEGUN( from Russia), DUROSIMI(from vict.Pizen) are better than him.
@(2). ….. ONUACHU last ten matches played is also ZERO. IT’S NOTHING TO WRITE HOME ABOUT ASLO. He has won highest goal scorers golden boot award with different clubs in Europe (he is European club goal scorers DECIEVER)l. BUT IN NIGERIA, HE ALWAYS FLOP,.
THIS IS A PLAYER THAT HAS PLAYED MORE THAN 20 MATCHES FOR SUPER EAGLE UNDER FIVE DIFFERENT COACH WITH JUST ONLY TWO GOALS SCORED. HIS STYLE OF PLAY DOESN’T SUIT SUPER EAGLE TEAM SETTING AS IT WAS COMPLAINED BY FORMER SUPER EAGLE COACH GERNOT ROHR.
GIFT ORBAN, ADAM AKORS ARE far far better than him.
PLAYERS WITH STRONG CHARACTER, AGGRESSIVENESS, FIGHTING SPIRIT & ABLE TO RUN WITH THE BALL IS THE KEY TO QUALIFY FOR NEXT WORLD CUP
Tunisia’s head coach Sami Trabelsi has praised Nigeria’s Super Eagles ahead of their clash in Group C of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, calling them “a continental powerhouse.”
I am almost certain now that Chelle is going to hand Onuachu a call-up. A good argument is that he hasn’t played under Chelle yet, so perhaps other coaches haven’t quite figured out how well to utilize him, as his current coach at Trabzonspor is doing. So we’ll see what Chelle can do with him if he does invite him for next week’s playoffs.

Thumbs up Sister woman Juliet. I have said it all. Nothing to add.
Leading the goal scorers log in Turkey these days – a league parading German, Italian, English and Nigerian megastar strikers – is nothing to make fun of.
Speaking of Onuachu, this man mountain is banging hard at the door of Super Eagles invitation.
I genuinely think he will make the list for the playoffs and I think it is warranted.
He was used as a dying-embers-time-waster in the last Afcon and he performed that role excellently by wasting time to see out Peseiro’s signature slim victories in the tail end of matches.
Can Chelle find a role for Onuachu. I hope so. This Iroko tree of a striker has hidden fruits which have been discovered in Turkey.
Will these be discovered by Nigeria?
@deo please abeg don’t use your oratory power here to decive chelle, Nigeria don’t have the kind of mid fielders that can make onuachu useful for at the moment.
Like Juliet rightly said, we need strong character agresivnes and hustling spirit.
We are up against strong African team, that world cup play off should not be toy with.
Chelle wo so fe gbo! Retaining se job depends heavily on our world cup qualification play off. If you like allow players like onuachu rubbish your ambitions.
My problem now is if chelle or member of the NFF can find a way to persuade Okan Buruk ( Galatasaray coach) to pls seat VO out of the next gala league match.
Happy he finished today’s match without any issue, Buruk do this for us and we will appreciate you man, nothing gat do VO for us at this time with the playoff coming up.
Brother Wike, I am not deceiving anybody o.
A striker who is scoring goals with reckless abandon in a league housing credible strikers is hard to ignore.
Onuachu is not a fan favourite. However, in Super Eagles colours, one can never doubt his commitment.
Never the most prolific, he does pull his weight.
Left to me, I prefer Akor Adams, Arokodare or Lookman to start ahead of Onuachu.
But, as a plan b or as a dying embers time waster, I will pick Onuachu ahead of others.
Coach CHELLE, dont be deceived !
This Onuachu has been given ample opportunities in the Super Eagles even when he was younger and I can’t remember any single game that he performed above average.
He just can’t perform at the highest level.. how many champions league goals or top 5 league.. His goal per match ratio for SE and top matches is very poor. .
There are younger strikers who have performed really well in top European competitions with goals..
Durosinmi has been on top form in Europe for the past 2 seasons..
Urban is not doing badly in SerieA..
We already have players Osi, Akor, Arokodare as reliable top 9. Younger all round strikers like Durosinmi and Orban can be considered.
ONUACHU should be left to enjoy his playing career at club level..
There are better playe
