Versatile midfielder Joel Obi has broken into the Internazionale team at the start of the 2011/12 season and looks set to be Nigeria’s next big-name player. 

The 20-year-old has been on the books of Inter since he was a teenager and made his official debut for the club in a Champions League group stage game against Werder Bremen last season. He went on to play his first senior match for Nigeria in February 2011. 

An all-action player who can fulfil almost any role in the midfield, Obi’s strengths are his passing, high work rate and tackling ability. In short, he is an excellent all round footballer.
