“We’re about to loan [Emenike] to West Ham United”, Yildirim said.
A 37-time Nigeria global, Emenike has already spent time on loan at Al Ain this season, scoring nine goals in 15 games.
“We were made a loan bid from West Ham but we are after a permanent transfer deal so the deal fell through”, The Mirror quotes Isbecer as saying. It is understood West Ham will ask for confirmation that the deal can go ahead at the meeting on Tuesday evening, with the club willing to switch their attentions to Galatasaray’s Burak Yilmaz instead. I’ve always been watching them.
Jelavic joined West Ham from Hull City in the last transfer window and has scored three goals in 13 appearances, 11 of them as substitute.
“I’ve known him [Bilic] for years”.
Emmanuel Emenike expressed happiness on Sunday after his loan move to West Ham was confirmed. He then left the Turkish club for Spartak Moscow in 2011 before returning to the Yellow Canaries in 2013. His club do not want to loan him.
