West Ham United transfer target Henry Onyekuru has been granted a work permit ahead of his proposed move to England.

However to which club remains to be seen - with West Ham being joined by the likes of Leicester City and Arsenal in vying for the Nigerian striker's signature.



"Henry has been in Paris, he is there with his agents," a source told Score Nigeria. "He has been granted his visa to the UK and he is now studying all the offers and possibilities with his handlers.

"His first choice is a Premier League club."

Although West Ham had been front runners to land the Eupen striker, Leicester had looked a more likely option in recent days.

However further rumours suggest that a deal between Onyekuru's entourage and Arsenal, who entered the race late, has already been struck.
