    Think it was in an interview with Obafemi after he signed with Newcastle, it mentioned Oladipupo but also that there was a third brother playing back home (John Ronan) and the way it read made it sound as if he may be the youngest of the three.

    Quick update on those players that impressed us at the U20 World Cup.

    Dominic Adiyiah is set for a move to AC Milan in January after vice-president Adriano Galliani confirmed the move (pending a work permit and medical), Sam Inkoom has also continued to impress with FC Basil in recent weeks. Better news for Daniel Opare who has been training with the Real Madrid first team in recent days, this will be a boost to the boy after his bit-part role in Ghana's Under 20 success. Yartey has been in impressive form of late for Beira-Mar particularly two weeks ago when he started, scoring one and assisted one in a 2-1 victory over Chaves.

    In other Ghana news Adiyiah, Agyei, Ayew, Inkoom, Addo and Badu have all been called up to the Black Stars squad for the forthcoming World Cup Qualifiers.

    As for the Nigerian contingent; Rabiu Ibrahim was touted for a place in the upcoming World Cup squad but failed to make it into Amodu's squad. King Osanga played, scored and was voted man of the match in Heartland's 2-1 first leg home win against Congo's T.P. Mazembe in the African Champions League Final.

    For the South African's; George Maluleka has completed his move to Ajax Cape Town and Ramahlwe Mphahlele's agent is currently dealing with offers from teams in Switzerland and Germany... reportedly.
