Watch Collections of the 5 Most Popular Nigerian Footballers in 2025

For many of the world’s athletes, luxury watches are way more than just something to tell time. They’re like little trophies that they can wear on their wrists. And among Nigerian footballers, especially those tearing it up in European leagues and big international campaigns, getting into luxury watches has become a real passion. We’re talking everything from diamond-studded Rolexes to those wild skeleton-dial Richard Mille models. Today, we are taking a closer look at the incredible watch collections of some Nigerian football stars.

Watches on the Wrists of Nigerian Footballers in 2025

We have put in the work here, scanned each player’s Instagram handle, checked out all their public photos, just to zoom in on their wrist. This has given us a quick overview of what watches these athletes like to wear. While this is not their complete collection by any means, you can at least know a few of the watches that are on the wrists of your favorite players.

Victor Osimhen

Napoli’s goal machine and, let’s be honest, Nigeria’s golden boy. Victor Osimhen has become one of Africa’s most valuable football players. He is famous for his explosive speed and deadly finishing, but he’s also quickly building a reputation for his incredibly sharp luxury fashion sense.

He has been spotted wearing a Patek Philippe Nautilus 5980/1R in full rose gold. This really shows that Osimhen has got a really good taste in watches. Now that this model has been discontinued, it’s exchanging hands in the secondary market for somewhere around $190,000. He has also been seen wearing the Richard Mille RM 030 featuring the signature skeleton dial.

Alex Iwobi

Representing the Fulham Football Club, Alex Iwobi perfectly blends technical skill with that easygoing charm fans just adore. Off the pitch, his Instagram shows us his great taste in luxury timepieces. Among the many AP watches he owns, the most impressive one has to be the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph Black Ceramic. This is a piece I can sit and admire all day long. Besides this one, he has some classics as well, including a nice Rolex Day-Date 40 in Everose Gold with Olive Green Dial.

Wilfred Ndidi

Leicester City’s midfield enforcer, Wilfred Ndidi, is known for his humble behaviour and absolute discipline on the field. He might be quiet in interviews, but his watch choices definitely speak for him. He has been seen wearing my personal favorite, the Richard Mille RM 055 Bubba Watson. The crisp white ceramic casing and skeleton dial were hard to miss on one of his Instagram posts. Besides that, he has also been spotted wearing a Hublot Big Bang Unico King Gold with the bold 45mm case.

Samuel Chukwueze

Electric on the wings and currently lighting it up for AC Milan, Samuel Chukwueze is Nigeria’s answer to that cool blend of vintage flair with modern execution. And guess what? He carries the same philosophy with his watch choices. In multiple occasions, he has been seen wearing the Rolex Submariner “Hulk”. Now discontinued, this green-dial classic is a total collector’s dream. He even has an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph “Camouflage” in his collection.

Kelechi Iheanacho

Formerly a Manchester City striker and now a highly respected forward at Leicester City, Kelechi Iheanacho might not be the loudest guy in the room. But his celebrity watch collection definitely makes a statement. We have seen him wearing everyone’s favorite Rolex GMT-Master II Pepsi. Even the Patek Philippe Aquanaut 5167A has been spotted on his wrist on multiple occasions.

Luxury Timekeeping, Nigerian Style

From iconic Rolexes to those jaw-dropping Richard Mille watches, these football stars are not just icons on the pitch. They are setting serious trends in the world of luxury watches as well. Their collections truly reflect more than just wealth. This shows their taste for the finer things in life. These watches are curated testaments to their individuality, their achievements, and their distinct personal style. And for fans and collectors alike, they offer a really unique glimpse into the Nigerian footballers’ lifestyle that continues to inspire both on and off the field.
