My Take
Frank Onyeka is the kind of player I find easy to root for. Coming out of Maiduguri in Borno State and climbing to the Premier League with Brentford while anchoring Nigeria's national midfield is no small journey. Defensive midfielders rarely get the headlines, but the quiet, thankless work of breaking up play and laying the foundation is what separates good teams from chaotic ones. Born in 1998, he still has his prime ahead of him, and that Capricorn patience seems to suit the unglamorous discipline his role demands. I am quietly betting on his trajectory.
