Ibrahim Mustapha

Ibrahim Mustapha is a key member of Plateau United F.C side that are topping the table as we head into round 11 of Nigerian Premier League. He has started all the 10 matches for the 2017 NPL winners scoring four goals in the process.

The 23-year old attacker is a joy to watch with his all-round play creating chances for his teammates to create havoc at opposition defences. For a team that has scored league-high 16 goals, it's expected that their striker should be leading the Golden Boot race as well but that's not the case with Plateau United F.C as Ibrahim Mustapha their leading striker prefers creating chances.

Mustapha is a predator in the box and will be expected to score the crucial goals that could deliver the second NPL trophy to Plateau United F.C. Despite being young, he has shown maturity and composure in front of goal with his neatly taken goals.
