Sporting Lisbon Like Kehinde Fatai

Sporting Lisbon plan to add former Nigeria youth international Kehinde Fatai to their squad before the close of the summer transfer window.

Prosport. ro citing Portuguese sports daily O Jogo says the 23 - year - old attacker is being sought after by manager Leonardo Jardim.

Fatai's contract with Astra Giurgiu runs out in the summer of 2014, and that means he can start discussing with any club of his choice as early as next January should the Romanian Liga 1 team fail to sanction his move before deadline day.

The prolific forward, Astra's top scorer last season with 14 hits, has netted 3 times in 3 matches in the current campaign.

Russian clubs Dinamo Moscow and Krylya Sovetov made enquiries on his availability last January.
