Footballers around the world are known for being trendsetters in fashion and Nigeria's football stars are not left out

Nigeria is known for producing exceptional football talent. But beyond their skills on the pitch, some of these athletes stand out for their impeccable sense of style, Soccernet.ng reports.

Renowned for their eye-catching fashion choices, Nigerians, particularly celebrities, have set a high standard in the world of fashion, and our football stars are no exception.

Whether gracing award nights, red carpet events or casual outings, these footballers consistently bring their A-game to every occasion.

Here’s Soccernet.ng’s curated list of some of Nigeria’s most stylish footballers:

1. Chidozie Awaziem

Awaziem’s style is a perfect blend of sporty and trendy elements. He effortlessly combines athletic-inspired pieces with fashionable touches to create a unique and modern look.

Often seen rocking stylish sneakers, baggy pants, and stylish sweaters, Awaziem exudes a laid-back yet fashion-forward vibe.

One thing that certainly makes him stand out is his penchant for accessorising with designer items, adding a touch of luxury to his casual fits.

The football star’s sense of style does not come as a surprise, as his wife Obiageli is a fashion connoisseur and she takes a lot of credit for putting his outfits together.

2. Victor Osimhen

As one of Nigeria’s top football stars, Osimhen is not only making waves with his goal-scoring prowess but also with his remarkable sense of style.

Whether he’s donning a tailored suit or rocking casual streetwear, the Super Eagles star exudes confidence and sophistication in every outfit.

3. Alex Iwobi

The Fulham midfielder is not only known for his skills on the field but also for his daring and eclectic fashion sense off it.

With his love for bold prints and edgy streetwear, Iwobi effortlessly combines classic tailoring with contemporary flair, earning him recognition as one of Nigeria’s most stylish athletes.

4. Wilfred Ndidi

If Ndidi weren’t a footballer, he would undoubtedly be a successful fashion model and influencer. The Leicester city midfielder is a fashion icon in his own right, often spotted in well-tailored and fashion forward outfits.

Ndidi is particularly known for his signature two-piece outfits which he effortlessly pairs with designer shoes and accessories, making him a trendsetter amongst Nigerian male footballers.

5. Odion Ighalo

Super Eagles star Odion Ighalo is a fashion-forward player committed to always stepping out in style.

Known for his trendy sense of style, Ighalo effortlessly transitions from classy suits to stylish tracksuits and impeccably tailored native attire.
