Wow, it's actually true we have signed him. Thanks for the confirmation Breezer.
I asked if he's training with us and was told yes he's with our under 21s. Never asked if we signed him! I can only presume we have...

Gotta love this comment:

"As a Nigerian I am disappointed that he signed a pre contract with Tottenham. They don't have a history of developing young talent. He should have gone to Man City at least it appears they take youth development serious.

I hope it is not to late for him to back out of the contract with Tottenham."

Followed by: "Surely, you know nothing about premiere league"


I like this one;

"Musa Yahaya for me was the best Nigerian player at the U17. Its really said that he is going to Tottenham. English teams with the exception of Arsenal don't have a good track record of developing young African talent. Watch Tottenham destroy his career by loaning him out to some lower league clubs where he will be played out of position and ultimately destroyed."

Like erm... Gervinho?

@coyspurs18 Ok just had confirmation he's with our under 21s. Been told he's "ok". However struggling at the moment due to fasting.

Ramadam goes on for another 10 days - so loks he he may 'struggle' for the next 2 weeks - and he (apparantly) starts his loan at Celta Vigo m about a month - so we may not se that much of him !

(Oh and thanks for the info!)

is it confirmed he Will go to Celta? If we (assuming he is ours) do send him there i really hope he has been promised a spot in the first team. this guy seems very promising and i would much rather see we keep him at the club, where we will have more control of his development.

He can't sign till he's 18 can he ?

According to his agent he's signed a pree-contract which obliges him to sign a full contract when he's 18 (December 2015). How true that is and how watertight the agreement remains to be seen.

The loan to Celta is his agent talking - I suspect it may be that he has not got a work visa sorted yet, but we'll see.

Some of those Iranian players look like they're going to get tortured for losing in that vid. :(

Wonder if we can get his team mate Ezeh? if only for the prospect of an Ezeh, Ezeh, Ezeh chant.

It is as confirmed he is going to Celta as it is that he has signed a pre-contract with us. The only source for either appears to be his agent.

Personally, I think he is going to Celta for game time until he can sign a contract with us.

he was training with our U21s so that's pretty confirmed.

iirc, the aussie GK also trained with us for a couple of weeks and he ended up signing for Club Brugge
Matt Ryan but he was only a trialist. We have Yahaya's agent saying he signed so this is just more confirmation of that.

Hopefully he will progress quicker than old mate Soli Corblimey
