Victor Mbaoma (born 20 October 1996) is a Nigerian footballer who plays for APR FC as a centre-forward.[2] He has played for the Nigeria national football team.[3][4][5][6][7]

Club career[edit]

Born in Lagos, Ifeanyi spent his early career with Remo Stars F.C., Akwa United, and Enyimba F.C. After his stint with Remo Stars F.C., he moved to Eyinmba football club in 2019 after Remo Stars was relegated from the Nigeria professional football league.[8]

Victor was one of the highest goal scorers in the league and this led to his call-up to the Nigeria National Team. He scored 16 goals in 21 games for his Eyinmba side.[2][9]

He was signed by Algerian Club, Mouloudia Club d'Alger on a two-year deal in June 2022.[10][11][12]

Victor was unveiled in January 2023 by Qizilqum Zarafshon after he was signed from Algerian topflight league side, Mouloudia Club d’Alger.[13]

International career[edit]

He made his international debut for Nigeria in 2022 during the International Friendly call-up games between Mexico and Ecuador.[14][15]
