What Adeyemi said

After Dortmund’s 4-2 win over Bayer Leverkusen, Adeyemi spoke to Nigerian journalist Oma Akatugba, who asked him to name his favourite Super Eagles players. 

Adeyemi wasted no time naming the skillful Jay Jay Okocha as the best Super Eagles player of all time before adding two more active players to his list of three.

“I think the best player ever is Jay-Jay Okocha, of course,” Adeyemi said. “About great players, [Victor] Osimhen is really good and also from [Bayer] Leverkusen, [Victor] Boniface is really good. Yeah, Nigeria has a lot of good players—and even players who do not play for Nigeria.”
