Onyekuru was named by readers of Belgian newspaper Het Nieuwsblad in Eupen dream team of the outgoing decade.

He netted 29 league goals for Eupen in three seasons.

It was his exploits at Eupen that fetched Onyekuru a big-money move to Premier League club Everton and he has since transferred to French Ligue 1 club AS Monaco.

However, Super Eagles stars Moses Simon and Samuel Kalu did not figure in the Team of the Decade at another Belgian club KAA Gent.
