While for Leverkusen, red-hot striker Victor Boniface and rapid winger Nathan Tella will both fancy their chances of making an impact after their breakout campaigns that have seen them help the club shatter several records.
Boniface and Tella watched the historic second leg tie against AS Roma as spectators, but the Super Eagles duo, especially, the 23-year-old striker with five goals and an assist, played key roles on the road to Dublin.

Turning to the UECL final in Athens a week later, when talented right-back Michael Kayode will be aiming to fire Fiorentina to European glory.
The powerful 19-year-old has been an important member of the team, starting five of six matches to help La Viola reach this stage. He has an assist to his name.

Finally, the biggest of them all, the Champions League final at Wembley. Borussia Dortmund's flying teenage winger Karim Adeyemi will be looking to cap an excellent season in Germany by getting his hands on club football's biggest prize.

The 22-year-old has been a menace for the Black and Yellow with his pace, skill and eye for goal in what has been an excellent run. He will be looking to lay hands on his first UCL title against the competition’s greatest team, Real Madrid.
So there you have it - five Nigerians with a massive opportunity to write their names into continental history over the coming weeks.

Whatever happens, it promises to be an occasion for the nation's football fans to savour, especially as a Nigerian is guaranteed to lift one of the titles already.
