Olanrewaju Kayode, the Super Eagles striker, has now fired his 10th goal in Turkey this season, cementing his status as one of the leading marksmen in the Turkish second tier. The milestone came in a recent match where Kayode found the net a reflection of his impressive resurgence since joining Esenler Erokspor.
This tally underlines his continued importance up front. Having previously scored for his former club, Kayode’s form signals both consistency and experience qualities that make him a constant threat in the Erokspor offensive line-up.
As he nears a double-figure haul, all eyes will be on whether he can maintain this scoring momentum perhaps pushing for a recall or renewed interest from bigger clubs.
Editorial
There are comebacks. And there are quiet renaissances, where a player’s resurgence whispers louder than any headline. Kayode’s 10th goal in Turkey this season doesn’t demand fireworks but it demands respect.

Once a journeyman across Europe and Turkey’s various divisions, Kayode now stands as a reminder that class, when paired with opportunity, refuses to fade quietly. At Erokspor, he hasn’t been handed a pedestal he’s built one for himself, goal by goal, minute by minute.
What makes this less about statistics and more about substance is timing. In an era where forwards chase glamour, he pursued relevance. In a league often defined by fleeting spells, Kayode sought rhythm. His 10-goal mark is not a final chapter it is an argument for consistency, for proving that even in the shadows of top-flight football, a striker’s hunger can shine bright.
For Nigerian football, his resurgence offers hope. Not every talent will bloom under the brightest spotlights. Sometimes more often than we admit the hard yards are in the second tiers, the little clubs, the uncelebrated fixtures. Kayode shows that a comeback can be built on fewer eyes but firmer ground.
If he continues in this vein, there may come a time when headlines return. But more important now is this: faith re-established, purpose restored, and a forward rediscovered.
