In a 10 second video clip posted, Osimhen said: “I am here to give my best and work hard for the good of the team.” In another development, Kelechi Iheanacho who was excused from camp to go and tidy up his possible transfer from Manchester City to West Ham United, has reportedly returned.

Manchester City Manager, Pep Guardiola, according to Metro, a UK publication, is keen to have a buy-back inserted as part of any transfer deal allowing Kelechi Iheanacho to join West Ham this summer.

The Spanish tactician is weighing up letting the Nigerian forward leave the Etihad Stadium, but is wary of the youngster’s tremendous potential for the future.

Iheanacho scored 14 goals in a superb breakthrough season last year, but couldn’t get into the team as often under Guardiola, netting seven goals in 29 appearances this term.
