Paul Onuachu scores six goals in four games against Konyaspor
Trabzonspor’s Nigerian striker Paul Onuachu has scored six goals in four official matches against TÜMOSAN Konyaspor. Onuachu, who finished last season as the top scorer with 22 goals, ended his 155-day goal drought in the match against Gençlerbirliği.
Trabzonspor’s Nigerian striker Paul Onuachu has stood out with his performances against TÜMOSAN Konyaspor. Onuachu has scored six goals in four official matches against the green-and-white side.
The Nigerian footballer scored twice in three of the four matches against Konyaspor. Onuachu failed to find the net in only one of those encounters.
Ended his goal drought after 155 days
Onuachu had gone without scoring in nine league matches—six last season and three this season—since Trabzonspor’s match against Galatasaray in the 28th week of last season. He ended that drought in the match against Gençlerbirliği.
Scoring 155 days after the Galatasaray match, Onuachu will be one of Trabzonspor’s key attacking options against TÜMOSAN Konyaspor.
Four goals against Konyaspor across two seasons
Onuachu scored twice when Trabzonspor beat Konyaspor 2-1 at home during the 2023-2024 season. He was unable to play in the next match because of an injury.
After returning to Trabzonspor following a one-season absence, the footballer scored twice when his team beat Konyaspor 3-1 at home during the 2025-2026 season. He did not score in the match Trabzonspor lost 2-1 away from home.
Scored twice in the Turkish Cup final
Onuachu also played an important role in Trabzonspor’s victory in the Ziraat Turkish Cup last season. He scored both of his team’s goals in the final, where Trabzonspor beat Konyaspor 2-1 in Antalya to win the trophy.
The Nigerian footballer scored four goals in the Ziraat Turkish Cup last season, making him one of his team’s top scorers alongside Ernest Muçi. His performance in the final helped Trabzonspor win the Turkish Cup for the 10th time, five seasons after its previous triumph.
Netted 26 goals in 36 matches last season
Onuachu scored 26 goals in 36 official matches for Trabzonspor last season. He scored 22 league goals and shared the top-scorer title with Başakşehir’s Eldor Shomurodov.
With this achievement, Onuachu became the sixth player in Trabzonspor’s history to win the top-scorer title and the third foreign player to earn the distinction at the club, after Şota Arveladze and Alexander Sørloth.
Nominated for the Puskás Award
Onuachu’s goal against TÜMOSAN Konyaspor on November 10, 2023, was among the nominees for FIFA’s Puskás Award for the best goal of the year. The goal, scored with a backheel, won the appreciation of viewers.
