Super Eagles forward Paul Onuachu took part in first-team training for Trabzonspor on Thursday, after recovering from a short injury layoff.
The 31-year-old suffered a minor injury last week and was a huge miss as Trabzonspor dropped points in a 1-1 draw against Alanyaspor as their hopes of qualifying for the Champions League hit a major setback.
The Nigerian forward has been a key part of the squad since his return to the club last summer and has scored 24 goals across all competitions, including 22 in the league as he tops the golden boot charts with only a few games remaining.
