Nigerian forward Bamidele Yusuf delivered another sparkling performance on Thursday night as Ferencvárosi TC battled to a 1–1 draw against Turkish giants Fenerbahçe in their UEFA Europa fixture.
The 24-year-old attacker who is yet to earn a senior cap for Nigeriawas one of the brightest players on the pitch, showcasing his pace, creativity, and growing maturity in the European scene.
Yusuf came close to scoring on two occasions, thrilling the home supporters with powerful efforts that rattled the crossbar.
His intelligent movement repeatedly unsettled Fenerbahçe’s backline, forcing them into hurried clearances and defensive adjustments.
He was substituted in the 73rd minute, walking off to warm applause from Ferencváros fans who have watched him evolve into a key figure for the Hungarian champions.
With his recent run of outstanding form marked by consistency, confidence, and improved finishing many analysts and Nigerian football enthusiasts believe the lively forward may now be on the verge of a maiden invitation to the Super Eagles.
Given Nigeria’s push to strengthen attacking depth ahead of upcoming international fixtures, Yusuf’s performances in Europe make a strong case for national team selectors to take a closer look at him.
If his current trajectory continues, Bamidele Yusuf could soon join the growing list of Europe-based Nigerian stars breaking into the national team.
