Slade: Yakubu Is Training With Us

Last updated : 06 February 2017 By CNS Sport

Coventry City manager Russell Slade has confirmed that Yakubu is training with the Sky Blues.

The 34 year old is training with City and if he prove he has the fitness to cope with League One football then he could be offered a contract for the rest of the season.

Slade told the Coventry Observer:“He’s in, he has had his first training day with us this morning.

“As you know, he’s played in the UK and his scoring records are very good.

“He is 34 now, his last club was in Turkey. He hasn’t played for a while which is the only concern, but great pedigree. Goals wise, it is one in two.

“If that is the sort of thing he can do for us then we’ve got to be interested.”
