Premiership giants looking at Oghenekaro Etebo

Portuguese daily newspaper A Bola claims that Arsenal and Leicester City are among clubs showing interest in Feirense winger Oghenekaro Etebo.

The 21-year-old joined the Primeira Liga side a year ago after bagging 23 goals in 64 league outings for Warri Wolves, but he only made his debut in April 2016 due to work permit issues.

However, the wait was well worth it as the youngster first helped Feirense secure promotion to the elite division before starting eight matches in the top flight.

Having also impressed to score 4 goals in 3 outings for Nigeria at the 2016 Summer Olympics, Etebo has quickly become one of Primeira Liga’s most sought after footballers.

It is believed that a number of high-profile sides are casting admiring glances his way, including Premier League giants Arsenal and Leicester City.

Chances are that minnows Feirense will not be able to keep hold of their prized asset for much longer, but they are expected to make a healthy profit on the Nigerian.
