HAMMERS CAN WIN RACE FOR NIGERIAN STAR

WEST HAM may have an edge over Arsenal in the chase for Belgian side Eupen’s Henry Onyekuru, 20, by offering him more regular football. The Nigerian forward (below), is the subject of a £6.85million offer from Arsenal with Nice and Bruges also in the hunt. English clubs have been told they must pay £7.85m to ensure he gets a work permit under totting-up rules — and wages of about £35,000 a week. TOTTENHAM have yet to agree new terms with Belgium defender Toby Alderweireld, 28. He has two years left on his contract and said: ‘In my mind I’m playing for Spurs next season.’
