Ikechukwu Uche: World Cup outsider looking in


Key Soccerlytics Insights:
  • Ikechukwu Uche is having a strong season for Villareal with 12 goals and 2 assists so far in La Liga. His 1124 minutes make him the 11th most utilized member of the Yellow Submarines
  • Uche is currently the 2nd most efficient goal scorer in Europe's top 5 leagues with a 42.86% conversion rate, 2nd only to Jorginho, who's form this season has earned him a move from Verona to Napoli (See BSports charts below)
  • The 30 year old Nigerian International has never quite produced his best form for the Super Eagles, but his form this season should see him at least make the squad as the primary backup to starting forward Emmanuel Emenike who currently plies his trade for Turkish giants Fenerbahce
