It was another busy weekend for Nigerian players who play outside the country.
In this piece, we summarise the performances of Nigerian players abroad. From England to Turkey to Egypt and Spain.
In England
We start from the Premier League where Alex Iwobi of Arsenal had an evening to forget as the Gunners were beaten 1-3 away at Manchester City. It was a horrible day for Iwobi who was dispossessed in the Arsenal box just before City’s opening goal. The Super Eagles star endured a frustrating evening before he was taken off in the 67th minute.

Also on Sunday, Super Eagles stars Wilfred Ndidi and Kelechi Iheanacho were in action as Leicester City were beaten 1-0 at home by Manchester United.
