Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly signed young Nigerian star Victor Osimhen after he shone at the Under-17 World Cup, scoring ten times in seven games.
Osimhen, 16, was awarded the Adidas Silver Ball earlier this month having scored 39 goals in 71 games for Nigeria and finished as top goal scorer in the Under-17 African Championship.
Spanish newspaper AS claim Spurs were in talks with the player's representative throughout the Under-17 World Cup and that he has agreed terms with the north Londoners already.
Osimhen’s team mate Kelechi Nwakali is also looking to move to the Premier League and is reportedly in talks with Manchester City.
