Manchester United, have reportedly joined rivals, Liverpool, in the race to sign want-away Chelsea star, Callum Hudson-Odoi.

The teenager was inches away from sealing a January move to Bayern Munich but the deal failed to materialise.

The Germany giants are however still interested in the services of the Englishman, with Borussia Dortmund also plotting a bid.

According a Mail Online report, Bayern are set to submit a £30 million in the summer with the hope of landing Hudson-Odoi's signature.

But with Chelsea's transfer ban, the London side may be unwilling to offload one of the best-rated teenagerds in the world.

Meanwhile, Hudson-odoi is yet to start a Premier League match under Maurizio Sarri, making starts in the Europa League instead.

England boss, Gareth Southgate, is however backing the teenager to succeed at Stamford Bridge despite his limited game time.

"If you look at number of appearances, he has actually been on the field quite a lot and I know how much faith Maurizio has in him," Mail Online quoted Southgate.
"He’s maturing well. His progress is good and, given that Chelsea could have a restriction on signing people, then his opportunities will come," he added.

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Chelsea star Eden Hazard admires Liverpool's Mohamed Salah.

The two players have been in spectacular form this season for their respective clubs, with Salah notching 17 league goals, four more than Hazard's 13.

Hazard believes the Egyptian talisman is one to be emulated in the English Premier Leagie.

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari.
