Arsenal will pay £20,000 for every start Kelechi Nwakali makes in the Premier League or Champions League but the amount to be remitted won’t exceed £500,000.
A sell - on clause has been inserted into the proposed contract , with Diamond Academy due to be paid a maximum of £1 million whenever the player is transferred to another club before the expiration of his deal.
