Super Eagles striker, Emmanuel Emenike has left Spartak Moscow for Fenerbahce in a €13 million deal. Emenike is believed to have signed a long-term deal with the Turkish giants and would earn €2.4 million per year. The 2013 AFCON Golden Boot winner is scheduled to undergo medicals in Turkey on Thursday to finalise the deal. This is the second time Fenerbahce are signing the 26-year old. Emenike was signed by Fenerbahce in 2011 from fellow Turkish club, Karabukspor but was farmed out to Spartak Moscow without playing a game after the club and the player were embroiled in a match-fixing scandal. Fenerbahce already have one Nigerian player, Joseph Yobo in their ranks.
