Coventry City Boss Concerned About Yakubu Inactivity For Ten Months
Former Everton and Middlesbrough star Yakubu Aiyegbeni has been invited to train with EFL League One club Coventry City with a view to a transfer. <br /><br />Yakubu has been in search of a new team after he parted ways with Kayserispor at the end of the 2015-2016 season.<br /><br />“He’s in, he has had his first training day with us this morning. As you know, he’s played in the UK and his scoring records are very good, ” manager Russell Slade told the Coventry Observer. <br /><br />“He is 34 now, his last club was in Turkey. He hasn’t played for a while which is the only concern, but great pedigree. Goals wise, it is one in two.” <br /><br />Apart from the aforementioned teams, Yakubu numbers Portsmouth, Leicester City, Blackburn Rovers and Reading amongst his former clubs in England. <br /><br />The 34-year-old has not kicked a ball in an official game since April 10, 2016 when he lasted three minutes on the pitch against Antalyaspor in the Turkish Super Lig. <br /><br />Igho Kingsley <br /><br />Photo Credit : readingfc.co.uk<br /><br />
