His achievement places him among an elite group, becoming the third African player to achieve such a feat for the club.

The 25-year-old forward, who has been in excellent form this season, is now pushing for a chance to don the iconic green and white jersey of the Nigerian national team.

In a recent interview with Blesk, Olatunji shared his deep motivation to represent the Super Eagles.

“It is a big goal for any young player, especially for us Nigerians. We are proud to play for our country. Just wearing a green jersey and an eagle emblem will give a player motivation,” he said.

He further highlighted the significance of representing Nigeria, a nation of over 220 million people, and the drive it brings to give his best on the field.

Olatunji hopes his impressive club form earns him a well-deserved call-up to the Super Eagles.
