This website understands that his Nigerian Academy have inserted some performance - related clauses into the proposed contract that stipulates that Manchester City will fork out a hefty sum to the nursery team if Kelechi Nwakali makes his debut for the first team.
West Ham are the other English Premier League club being linked with a move for the central midfielder but are certain to lose out if it comes to a bidding war, given the financial muscle of the Etihad outfit.
