What a great name

Sheffield Wednesday are leading the chase for former Chelsea youngster Nortei Nortey.

The highly-rated 18-year-old left Chelsea's academy at the end of last season after a couple of knee injuries hampered his progress.

Now fully fit, Nortey has a number of Championship and League One clubs keen on taking a look at him.

However, Sky Sports understands that Wednesday have now moved into pole position to land the Hammersmith-born full-back and he is due to train with them this week.

Should Nortey sufficiently impress manager Dave Jones, he could be offered a deal as he looks for a replacement for Hayden White, who joined Bolton earlier this summer.

Nigerian clubs suspended after 'scandalous' scorelines

Four clubs involved in two play-off matches that ended 79-0 and 67-0 respectively - a total of 146 goals - have been suspended in Nigeria.
Plateau United Feeders were 79-0 victors over Akurba FC while Police Machine FC demolished Bubayaro FC 67-0.
"It is unacceptable - a scandal of huge proportions," said Muke Umeh, chairman of the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) Organising Committee.
"The teams are suspended indefinitely, pending further sanctions."
Plateau United Feeders and Police Machine went into the matches level on points, with promotion to the lowest tier of the Nationwide League Division at stake.
Feeders scored 72 of their goals in the second half, while Police Machine reportedly scored 61 times after the break in their game.
The results meant that Plateau edged above Police Machine on goal difference.
Umeh added: "We will investigate this matter thoroughly and get to the bottom of it."
The NFF's director of competitions, Dr Mohammed Sanusi, gave assurances that the Organising Committee would hand out severe sanctions on all persons and institutions indicted by the investigation.
"The teams involved, their players and officials, match officials, coordinator and anyone found to have played some role in this despicable matter would be severely dealt with," Sanusi said.

It's all common knowledge, don't see why they would be unhappy about it.

They are winning trophies at the expense of millions of poverty stricken Russians. :woop: :woop

Just watched that - superb

Ha! Nigerian football. I've randomly got the Nigerian league table on my phone ... The top team only won twice away from home. It's so close it's incredible. Lemme see if I can get it hosted ...

He's off isn't he.

What a mad old window in terms of transfers and changes of management.

Next season should be interesting.
