Back with Villarreal
Oluwaseyi is back with Villarreal and ready for the new season, according to the club.
Analysis: Oluwaseyi finished last season with four goals and two assists across 34 appearances in all competitions with Villarreal, his debut campaign with the club after joining from Minnesota United last summer. He was unable to find the net at the World Cup, managing eight shots without a goal across Canada's journey, but his return to club training now shifts the focus to building on last season's productive first year in LaLiga heading into the new campaign under new coach Inigo Perez.
Takes two shots in loss
Oluwaseyi registered two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 3-0 defeat versus Morocco.
Analysis: Oluwaseyi got the start upfront ahead of Promise David and Cyle Larin, but he didn't do much throughout the game. The Villarreal striker didn't score a single goal in the World Cup despite starting in three of Canada's five contests, and he racked up just eight shots (four on target) in total.
Three shots, no goal
Oluwaseyi registered three shots (two on goal) in Sunday's 1-0 victory against South Africa.
Analysis: Oluwaseyi would start his first match of the World Cup since their opener on Sunday, with the forward playing 70 minutes. He would earn three shots and put two on target, although it was not enough to score. He has now started in two of his four World Cup appearances, leaving some questions on whether he will start the round of 16 match or not.
Creates pair of chances
Oluwaseyi recorded two shots (one on goal) and two chances created in Friday's 1-1 draw against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Analysis: Oluwaseyi started in the attack and created a pair of chances, but failed to really do much else. His pair of shots weren't overly threatening and in the end he was left with nothing to show for the opening match of the World Cup. Oluwaseyi could rotate throughout the group stage, as Canada have a few competent attacking options.
