West Ham Confirm Approach For Fenerbahce Striker Emmanuel Emenike

West Ham manager, Slaven Bilic, has confirmed that the Hammers are working on a deal to sign former Nigeria national - teamer Emmanuel Emenike from Fenerbahce before the close of the transfer market.

The 28-year-old will not have work permit problems as he was an important member of the Super Eagles until October when he called time on his international career after a dispute with the powers that be.

“There is a new situation with a couple of our players might leave the club and if that happens then we are going to try to get one in - and Emenike is one of them. But is not a done deal, ” said Slaven Bilic.
 
“Of course he is a good player. He is one of the players we have been linked with and we will see.”

Emenike spent the first half of this season at Al Ain, scoring 7 goals in 11 appearances for the United Arab Emirates team in the league.
