Onyeka praised for big impact at Premier League hopefuls Coventry City
Super Eagles midfielder Frank Onyeka has earned rave reviews for the huge impact he has made at Premier League hopefuls Coventry City.
Brentford loanee Onyeka scored his first goal for English Championship table-topping Coventry City to edge past Derby County 3-2 Friday night.
It was his first goal in two years in England.
In February, Onyeka was also Man of the Match when Coventry bagged three vital points at Swansea courtesy of a 2-0 win.
Coventry are now 11 points clear at the top of the standings with six rounds of matches to the end of the regular season.
“Eight Coventry appearances and seven wins. I think that says it all,” remarked former player and now agent Curtis Davies.
“Frank Onyeka has been a very good signing for Coventry City,” added @number2blue
“Loan signing likely to become permanent with promotion.
“Has the goal but overall play been very good in game v Derby.”
“Frank Onyeka has been a massive signing for Lampard. He’s too good for this level,” hailed @Blue_Footy
Most certainly not bad for the hard running midfielder after many questioned his decision to drop down a division so as to enjoy regular first-team football in England.

Galatasaray President has made it clear they do not plan to sell Victor Osimhen even if a club came up with the right price for the star striker.
Galatasaray President Dursun Ozbek told Fotomac that the Turkish champions hope to keep the Super Eagles striker for “many years” despite rife speculations he could make a major transfer this summer.
Fotomac: If a €150 million offer comes in for Victor Osimhen, would you be open to negotiations?
Galatasaray President: We didn’t buy Osimhen to sell him! He’s a player who adds great value to Galatasaray and loves Galatasaray very much. We want him to serve Galatasaray for many years to come. Osimhen is also very happy at Galatasaray.
Lucky Ezeh has said he hopes for success at new Czech club Zbrojovka Brno.
The 22-year-old forward has moved from Karvina, where he scored nine goals in 34 appearances last season.
“The move to Zbrojovka is a big step for my career,” Ezeh said.
“During my talks with the club’s representatives, I got the impression that a very interesting project is being created in Brno and that Zbrojovka is strengthening on all fronts.
“I am pleased to be part of a team full of great football players and to work under the leadership of excellent coaches. I believe that together we will achieve great success.”
Zbrojovka sports director Martin Jiranek said Ezeh will be a great addition.
“He is a striker with great potential who has experience from the first league,” he remarked.
“He is hardworking, honest in his approach to training and matches and has the potential for further performance growth. We expect him to increase the competition in the offensive.”
English Championship side Southampton have announced that Super Eagles midfielder Joe Aribo has been released at the expiry of his contract.
Aribo, 29, has endured four rather difficult years at ‘The Saints’ after he joined up from Scottish giants Rangers in 2022.
Last winter, he played on loan at Leicester City in search of more regular first-team football.
He can now join another club as a free agent.
