Manchester City are poised to secure a deal for Nigeria under-17 star Musa Yahaya. The attacking midfielder would be the third Nigeria Under-17 international to sign on at the Etihad Stadium following the African nation's success at the World Cup Yahaya scored four times in seven matches at the U-17 World Cup held in the United Arab Emirates, with Nigeria beating Mexico 3-0 in the final to win the tournament.
Dubbed the 'Nigerian Neymar', Yahaya had been tracked by Tottenham, as well as teams in Portugal and Spain, but City appear to have won the race for the 16-year-old and are in deep discussions with the player's agent, Babawo Mohammed.
