Amuneke set to reap 5.3 million euros for Nwakali, Chukwueze
Golden Eaglets coach, Emmanuel Amuneke, could strike it rich if Nigeria Under 17 internationals Kelechi Nwakali and Samuel Chukwueze are sold to a European club in the near future, as he has demanded a cumulative transfer fee of 5.3 million euros for both players.
According to reports, Kelechi Nwakali’s economic and sporting rights are owned by Diamond Academy, Umuahia and ASJ Academy Owerri in the ratio 70 : 30 but both teams are only acting as proxies on Amuneke’s behalf.
If the corporate veil of Diamond Academy is pierced, a certain Tony Adele, who works hand in hand with Amuneke, runs the grassroots club in partnership with Frankie Stephen , better known as the United Kingdom - based intermediary of Flying Eagles winger Bernard Bulbwa.
As for ASJ Academy, the club is owned by Amuneke’s family and the former Barcelona midfielder is represented there by Emeka. They own 30 percent of the sporting rights of Kelechi Nwakali.
The ex Zamalek star only wants to divert attention following the dispute in the sale of Chidiebere Nwakali and Bernard Bulbwa to Manchester City and Esperance respectively.
The Nigeria Under 17s manager has told teams interested in Nwakali to cough up 3.5 million euros to sign the player, while he will not accept an offer less than 1.8 million euros for Samuel Chukwueze and the agency commission he is expected to receive for the sale of both players is 700,000 euros.
Amuneke has demanded that the European clubs that finally snap up the players must sign a partnership agreement with his Academy, stipulating that two players from his academy must go on trial with the buying club every year, accompanied by the coach.
