Germans intensify Ujah chase, City drop Iheanacho

German  Bundesliga newcomers   Hannover 96 have stepped up their pursuit of out-of-favor Nigeria forward Anthony Ujah who is reportedly eager to ditch his relegation-bound Chinese Super League outfit Liaoning Whowin this summer.


 

Hannover manager Andre  Breitenreiter, who   is scouring  the  transfer market for a   proven goalscorer to ensure  the Reds  retain their top-flight status  at the end of the season,  has  set Ujah  out as a key transfer target.

The 26-year-old, who joined  Liaoning  from  Bundesliga side Werder Bremen on July 5,  2016   on a four-year deal worth around  €13m, wants a fresh start and   has  reportedly agreed  terms with Hannover to return to Germany where he made a name for himself between 2012 and 2016.

Meanwhile, Manchester City star Kelechi Iheanacho was omitted from  the squad who travelled to the  United States on Monday  for their pre-season tour.

The Citizens manager Pep Guardiola surprisingly  including Samir Nasri, Eliaquim Mangala, Gael Clichy and Jason Denayer, who  have been declared surplus to requirements, shunning Nigeria striker Iheanacho and Ivory Coast forward Wilfried Bony.
