      Most nigerian players use a "professional" date of birth, Kanu is actually 42 despite saying he is 37, obafemi martins is older than he says

          I've only typed in yakubu into Google and says he was born November 1982 making him 31 ??? Unlike a Nigerian footballer to have conflicting birth dates

            They have changed it now to 82 since the other day. Ha ha . Might be some truth in him coming then, and hes trying to make himself look younger like all nigerians do. Played his first game at 15 then if hes 31.

              Unbelievable how he'd get a work permit really , if he's lying about age he could be lying about anything . All I know Is if he's fit I'd take him for 6 months . Great goals to games ration wherever he's been . To be fair it did claim he was 28 when on loan at Leicester so 31 would be about right . Who knows eh ? Probably no interest on our part anyway
