Nigerian winger Chidera Ejuke has made headlines by leading the dribbling charts across Europe’s top five leagues this season as reported earlier by Sportsbuddy.
Now playing for Sevilla, the 26-year-old has completed 23 successful dribbles, outpacing Barcelona’s rising star Lamine Yamal.
Ejuke’s dynamic start in La Liga has quickly solidified his status as one of the top dribblers in Europe, with his flair catching the eye of fans and pundits alike.

Chidera Ejuke’s Reaction to His Dribbling Success
In an interview with Marca, Ejuke shared his excitement about leading the charts ahead of football stars like Lamine Yamal and Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappé and Vinicius Junior.
“It’s exciting because I want to have fun on the field, but I also want to contribute to the team positively, there are many very good dribblers in the Spanish league. Yamal, Vinicius, Mbappé… There is an incredible level. I can do something too (laughs). My things.”
Ejuke, who was ranked the third-best dribbler globally by CIES Football Observatory in 2021, recently scored his first La Liga goal—a late match-winner in Sevilla’s 2-1 victory over Real Valladolid.
