With a place in Nigeria's squad for the November international fixtures awaiting him, Mubarak Suleiman delivered another timely reminder of his quality in Slavia Prague's big win.

Suleiman makes instant impact against Artis Brno

The Nigerian midfielder needed just three minutes to register an assist in Slavia Prague's 4-1 victory over 10-man Artis Brno at the Fortuna Arena on Sunday.

Suleiman set up Mojmír Chytil for the opening goal before the visitors' task became more difficult when Michal Jerábek received two yellow cards within three minutes.

David Jurásek doubled Slavia's advantage eight minutes into the second half, while Štěpán Chaloupek and Lukas Provod added further goals. Papalélé scored Artis Brno's consolation.

Nigerian youngster reaches eight goal contributions

Suleiman has now registered five goals and three assists in 12 appearances across all competitions this season.

His contribution also means he has provided assists in consecutive Czech First League matches, following his brace and assist in the 5-0 victory over Jablonec.

The 19-year-old was substituted in the 69th minute, while Nigerian teammates David Moses and Emmanuel Ayaosi also featured. Moses played for 59 minutes, with Ayaosi making way in the 69th minute.

The midfielder will now look to carry his club form into international football after earning a call-up to Nigeria's squad for the November double-header against Tanzania in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
