John Ogu is one of the leading candidates to be named Player of the Week in the Israeli Premier League for the last round of matches.

The Nigeria international has been nominated for the prestigious accolade alongside Maccabi Tel Aviv skipper Eran Zahavi, Tomer Suissa (Hapoel Haifa) , Dele Aiyenugba (Bnei Yehuda ) and Maccabi Petah Tikva shot - stopper Itamar Nitzan.

On the other hand, Aiyenugba kept a clean sheet in Bnei Yehunda’s goalless draw with Maccabi Haifa and stopped his side from conceding in injury time with a brilliant save.
