Trabzonspor striker Onuachu expects to break his silence in the new season

Trabzonspor's star striker Paul Onuachu failed to score in his first 4 official appearances of the 2026-2027 season.

A quiet start to the new season

Carrying Trabzonspor's goalscoring burden last season, Paul Onuachu made a quiet entrance to the 2026-2027 season contrary to expectations.

The Nigerian player, who featured for a total of 313 minutes in the first 4 official matches played by the claret-blues in the Süper Lig and UEFA Europa League, has not yet experienced the joy of scoring.

Performance in league matches

Playing in the matches against Kasımpaşa and Başakşehir in the opening weeks of the Trendyol Süper Lig, Onuachu stayed on the pitch for 90 minutes in the first match and 87 minutes in the second.

The experienced forward failed to shake the opponent's net in either of these encounters.

European adventure and Ferencvaros matches

Onuachu was deployed by the coaching staff in both matches played against Ferencvaros within the scope of the UEFA Europa League Play-Off Round.

Remaining on the pitch for 90 minutes in the first leg, the striker played for 46 minutes in the return leg in Hungary and could not break his silence in Europe either.

Last season's achievements

Scoring a total of 26 goals wearing the claret-and-blue jersey last season, Onuachu had been the team's most important offensive weapon.

The Nigerian footballer shared the top scorer title in the Süper Lig with Shomurodov by scoring 22 goals.

Expectations for the Amed Sportif Faaliyetler match

Following Trabzonspor's elimination from the UEFA Europa League, the team will face Amed Sportif Faaliyetler away in the 3rd week of the Süper Lig.

All eyes in the claret-and-blue community have turned to the Nigerian striker, who is expected to break his goalscoring drought in the away match in Diyarbakır.
