It was the 32-year-old’s ninth goal in 24 appearances in all competitions for Trabzonspor so far this season.

And reacting to Nwakaeme’s double strikes at the weekend, Mensah wrote on Twitter: “Best player in the league Anthony Nwakaeme.”

The forward joined Trabzonspor in 2018 from Israeli club Hapoel Beer Sheva where he spent three seasons.

He helped Trabzonspor to the Turkish Cup and Super Cup in 2020.

On 10 November 2017, he made his debut for Nigeria against Algeria in the qualifiers for the 2018 World Cup qualifiers.
