Hmm... A young versatile player he was!

Kanu Nwankwo Joined Arsenal from Italian giant, Inter-Milan... Read how his signing was reported by Theguardian.com in 1999 below:

From theguardian - Arsenal yesterday completed the signing of the Nigerian international Nwankwo Kanu from Internazionale for a reported £4.5 million. The 22-year-old striker is believed to have signed a six-year contract after months of negotiations which finished with a rigorous medical examination in London yesterday.

Kanu had a heart-valve operation shortly after his £1.3 million move from Ajax to Inter two years ago and has had knee problems.

He lifted the European Cup with Ajax in 1995 and led Nigeria to victory in the 1996 Olympic Games. He gained the most recent of his 11 Nigeria caps in June in the 4-1 defeat by Denmark in the World Cup finals in France.

The Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said: "He is a very welcome addition to our squad and will be a great asset to us as he has already proved his talent at club and international level."
