- Manchester United are interested in the signing of Callum Hudson-Odoi

- Bayern Munich are still leading the chase for the youngster's services having submitted multiple bids

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

Hudson-odoi remains non-committal to the Blues, with reports suggesting he is not any close to inking a new deal with the Stamford Bridge outfit ahead of the expiry of his current contract that runs out in 2020.

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.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier.

Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
