Eight Nigerian stars face off in English topflight

Fulham vs Leicester City

The Cottagers’ clash with the Foxes pits Iwobi and Bassey against Nigeria teammate Ndidi, prospecting a mouthwatering midfield duel. All three players will be eager to make their mark after opening day’s setbacks.

Iwobi, who netted five goals in 30 appearances last term, will look to pull the strings for Fulham following their narrow 1-0 loss to Manchester United.

The versatile 28-year-old midfielder had a delightful pre-season and looks to cement his status as a key player for Marco Silva’s side.

Bassey, Fulham’s robust centre-back, made 29 appearances last season and will be crucial in nullifying Leicester’s attack. His aerial prowess and improving ball-playing abilities make him a modern defender well-suited to Premier League demands.
