West Ham paid N217m for Emenike- Fenerbahce

By Our Reporter
TURKISH giants, Fenerbahce has revealed that West Ham paid the sum of N217, 408, 089 million for the services of ex-Super Eagles ace, Emmanuel Emenike.
NaijaSportsXtra gathered from a Turkish wire source after the Yellow Canaries chairman Aziz Yildirim said: “They [West Ham] will give us £760,000 (N217,408,089 million) for this agreement with the option to buy him for £8.3m.”

Meanwhile, Emenike is expected to make his Hammer debut in tomorrow’s (Tuesday) night clash against Aston Villa.
The 28-year-old Nigerian has moved to Upton Park until the end of this season from Fenerbahce.
Slaven Bilic, who previously coached the Istanbul main rivals, Besiktas, had seen enough of Emenike to be suitably impressed by the striker, not only in Turkey but also in

Russia where he was in charge of Lokomotiv Moscow during the player’s spell at Spartak Moscow.
Recall, Emenike in his first interview said: “I have always known West Ham as a great club.”
