Top Tackler Tyronne Ebuehi Named In Eredivisie Team Of The Week

Tyronne Ebuehi has been named to the Team of the Week for the latest round of matches played in the Dutch Eredivisie.

Dutch regional newspaper BN DeStem announced its ceremonial Team of the Week on Monday morning, with the Nigeria international occupying the right-back position in a 4-3-3 formation.

Ebuehi started and put in a full shift as ADO Den Haag were held to a 1-1 draw by Heracles at Polman Stadion on Saturday night.

The 22-year-old racked up a game-high four tackles, made two interceptions and four clearances.

Of his 40 passes in the game, 80 percent were accurate and he did nor commit a foul nor pick up a booking over the course of the ninety minutes he spent on the pitch.

This season, Ebuehi has averaged 2.4 tackles and 1.1 interceptions per game from 20 appearances in the Dutch top-flight.

He will complete the season with ADO Den Haag and join Benfica as a free agent in the summer.
