Wilfred Ndidi and Henry Onyekuru have been listed in their former club’s Team of Decade for KAS Eupen and Genk  respectively, according to a report Belgian newspaper Het Nieuwsblad.

Ndidi joined Genk in January 2015 from Nath Boys of Lagos.

The defensive midfielder played a total of 63 league matches and scored four goals over three seasons.

In May, 2017 he joined Premier League club Leicester City for a record €18m.

Onyekuru, on his part, joined KAS Eupen in 2015 and was instrumental to the club’s promotion the same year.

His goals also helped them stay put in the Belgian top league for two seasons.

The 22-year-old 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.

Both Simon and Kalu joined Gent from Slovak club AS Trencin and will later earn the Belgian club hefty transfer  monies when they moved to Spain and France, respectively.
