Emenike undergoes a medical

|

EnenikeEmmanuel Emenike has arrived London to undergo a medical with West Ham, having already agreed personal terms with the irons. Chairman’s son Jack Sullivan confirmed the player has arrived in London and will undergo a medical presumably at West Ham’s Spire Roding Hospital, based in Roding Lane South, Redbridge. He tweeted out just after midday “Emenike has arrived in London to under go a medical. More news soon”

West Ham are understood to have already agreed a deal with Fenerbahce to bring the 28 year old Emenike on loan for the remainder of the season with an option to buy him permanently.

Emenike was the Golden Boot winner at the 2013 African Cup of nations.

Yesterday the club’s own ITK, the Boleyn Insider revealed “My sources have indicated to me that the Nigerian international could be arriving in England in the next 24 hours and the Hammers are hopeful that a deal can be finalised.”

    Do we need a work permit if so how long will he have to wait as he is a retired international

  • hammer4life says:

    Yes we do bubs and I remember reading about a week ago where this may be a problem for the reason you stated and because Nigeria are not currently in the top 50. I’ve never understood how so many get permits despite the stringent criteria supposedly laid down but I can only assume Sullivan has done his homework and got an unofficial nod on the permit before the medical.

    I’m not sure why but i have a sense of foreboding about this one…

  • bubs says:

    Don’t think they would get this far forward if he was going to be turned down but hey ho it would not be Westham if it was easy
    Don’t sound like the Turks want our money or should I say they want to much for a 30 year old,
