Kelechi Iheanacho’s transfer to Manchester City is back on track after it looked like it had collapsed over a delayed payment.
We can specially reveal that agents working on the move to the EPL for the FIFA U17 World Cup MVP are now working on getting the player and father to England for a meeting to address “some vexed issues”.
“Both the agents in the US and those in London are now co-operating to get visas to the UK for the Iheanachos so that they meet with Manchester City officials on the contract they have signed.
“You could therefore say the transfer is back on track.”
Issues to be discussed would include the January 2015 payments to the player, his father and the Taye Football Academy in Owerri.
The Iheanachos recently signed for City in Madrid, Spain, after Kelechi passed a medical attended by the EPL club’s chief scout Gary Worthington.
However, when they discovered they will not be paid immediately, they have explored the possibilities of reviving the interest of Portuguese champions FC Porto.
There were unconfirmed reports too that Iheanacho’s US-based agent tried to hawk the 17- year-old star to Spanish La Liga club Getafe.
