Manchester City Close In On Nigerian Starlet Chidi Nwakali by Benissues(m): 10:17am On Jan 01, 2014
Manchester City are closing in on a deal for 17-year-old central midfielder Chidi Nwakali, Goal can reveal.


MAN CITY LATEST
Nwakali, who was a key figure in the Nigeria squad which won the Under-17 World Cup in November, will fly to Manchester from Lagos with his parents to hold talks with City chiefs on January 2.

If a deal is completed, Nwakali will earn £300,000 a year in wages, fees and add-ons from the day he turns 18 on December 26.

Nwakali is also adept at playing in defence and currently represents Shuttle Sports Academy in Lagos.

The move follows a failed attempt to sign 17-year-old striker Kelechi Iheanacho, who has verbally agreed a deal with Porto amid heavy interest from City.

Iheanacho played alongside Nwakali in Nigeria’s Under-17 World Cup triumph and ended as the tournament’s top scorer with six goals.

He should take a cue from Kelechi Iheanacho and look for options in belgian, spanish, italian, dutch and french league.
