Ebere Paul Onuachu listenⓘ (born 28 May 1994) is a Nigerian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Süper Lig club Trabzonspor on loan from EFL Championship club Southampton and the Nigeria national team.

Onuachu has won League titles in Denmark and Belgium, and while in the latter country was voted Belgian Footballer of the Year and won the country's top scoring Golden Bull trophy.

Onuachu was called up to the Nigeria under-23 national team in February 2015. In March 2019 he received his first call-up to the Nigerian senior team.

On 26 March 2019, Onuachu scored his first goal for Nigeria in a friendly match against Egypt. The goal was scored within the first ten seconds of the game, and the fastest ever scored for Nigeria. Following the goal Onuachu was heralded as the "toast of Nigerian football", with "his coach, team-mates, journalists and fans talking about him". He was selected to the Nigeria squad for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations. He played in Nigeria's 1–0 win over Burundi, as the Super Eagles reached the semi-finals, losing 2-1 to Algeria in the last four, then beating Tunisia 1-0 in the bronze-medal match.
