Onyemaechi lifts record-breaking 48th league title with Olympiacos on club’s 100th anniversary

Bruno Onyemaechi has helped Olympiacos clinch their 48th Greek Super League title, a historic triumph that also marks the club’s 100th anniversary, Footynaija.com reports.

The Nigerian left-back, who joined the Greek giants in January 2025 from Boavista, has now celebrated a league winner’s medal in just a few months at the club.

Olympiacos confirmed their dominance in Greece by beating rivals like AEK Athens and PAOK to the league trophy.

This latest triumph makes it an incredible 48 league titles for the Athens-based club, the most by any team in the history of Greek football. It is also special because the club is celebrating 100 years since it was founded in 1925.

The success places Onyemaechi in a select group of Nigerians to play for Olympiacos. He is the seventh Nigerian to represent the club, following well-known names like Emmanuel Emenike and Henry Onyekuru. But unlike the others, Onyemaechi has made history by lifting the trophy during the club’s centenary celebrations.

For the Super Eagles, Onyemaechi continues to push for regular selection under head coach Eric Chelle. He was part of the squad that reached the final of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

Now, with a league title to his name, he will be looking to carry this winning momentum into Nigeria’s upcoming World Cup qualifiers.

Olympiacos’ latest triumph stretches their lead at the top of the all-time Greek champions list, with Panathinaikos next on 20 titles and AEK Athens with 13.

The club’s supporters are already celebrating a perfect centenary year, and Onyemaechi’s participation is always going to be remembered as part of this historic moment.
