Nathan Adewale Temitayo Tella
Nathan Tella attacks space down the right, using pace to threaten the back line. He rose from Southampton's academy to a Premier League debut in 2020 and his first goal in 2021. He thrives on rapid runs. A 2022–23 Burnley loan yielded 17 league goals and a Championship title. In 2023 he signed for Bayer Leverkusen and helped win the Bundesliga in 2023–24. November 2023 marked his first Nigeria call-up. Nathan Tella operates as a right winger who presses high, links play, and attacks space. The forward's pace and direct runs stretch lines and produce quick shots.
