WEST Ham United striker, Emmanuel Emenike has expressed his delight after his cousin Bright Dike was handed a deal by Russian Premier League side, FC Amkar.
Emenike took to social media twitter to tweet: "Congrats to my brother Bright Dike for his new deal in FC Amkar all the best in Russian League ✌." Meanwhile, Dike celebrated signing a contract with Amkar Perm by netting the game-winner in a tune-up game against Shakhtyor Soligorsk on Monday afternoon.
The friendly staged at the Jose Burgos Stadium was organized to enable the fringe players and new recruits get some playing time under their belt.
Dike, who penned a one-and-a-half-year deal with Amkar Perm on Friday, scored the only goal of the game in the 35th minute.
Amkar Perm will face Norwegian club Stabæk in their final scrimmage in Spain on Tuesday, February 23.
