Nigeria U17 skipper Kelechi Nwakali is poised to join older brother Chidiebere at English Premier League side Manchester City, according to report.
“Kelechi is in England to do his medical before he signs for Manchester City,” a proud Chidiebere said.
The exciting midfielder, who styles his game after that of Cote d’Ivoire skipper and City star Yaya Toure, is expected to sign a pre-contract for the blue half of Manchester before he is eventually given a pro deal.
Chidiebere, who has joined the Nigeria U20 team ahead of next month’s FIFA U20 World Cup in New Zealand, already has a contract with City but has been shipped out on loan to Malaga for the next two and half years.Last month, younger brother Kelechi Nwakali led the Golden Eaglets to qualify for this year’s FIFA U17 World Cup in Chile. “Kelechi has developed very well within a short space of time,” remarked his older brother.
“He is very confident on the ball, while I am a lot more aggressive.” Chidiebere’s older brother has also only recently attended trials at Nacional of Uruguay.
