It’s crystal clear that Onyekuru can not cut it big at a bigger club side like Monaco, that’s why when he first played at Galatasaray he shine like a million star because it’s an average league that’s not reckon with in Europe. I problem I always have with my fellow Nigerian footballers who plied their trades abroad is that, they don’t put in the extra work in order to attract bigger club sides, and even when they do sometimes they become comfortable sitting on the bench when they got there, the Turkish league can not be compared to the French league, he’s only downgrading his career by going back to that league where he once played for. I wish him well anyway.
