Emmanuel Emenike Biography

He didn’t sign a professional contract until his transfer from Delta Force to a South African side named Mpumalanga Black Aces in January 2008 – where he spent just five months.

Another transfer to a First Division team in the South African league (FC Cape Town) proved to be another wonder audition for Emmanuel Emenike. He barely played a year at FC Cape Town before Karabükspor came calling with an irresistible offer.

Of course, being a very lucrative offer, it was a no-brainer for the Nigerian international. He agreed to join the club.

He transited to the Turkish clubside and had a swell time playing there. In his two-year stay, Emenike bagged 30 goals in 51 outings and won the Best Foreign Player in the league after the 2009/2010 season – a performance that was the deciding factor in seeing his contract extended for another three years.

Soon enough, Emmanuel Emenike had become very popular in the Turkish topflight division, particularly after bagging the Best Foreign Player award the year earlier.

A move to Fernabahçe was made in 2013, but little did Emenike and the world know that the move would turn out to be a disaster; as he never featured in a competitive match for the club due to a match-fixing scandal which was eventually dismissed by a court.

Subsequently, Emenike was sold to Spartak Moscow for a fee of around €10 million in 2011.

He spent two years in Russia, playing UEFA Europa League and set a record that to date hasn’t been broken.

Emenike scored what was the fastest goal in the history of the Russian league when he scored within 10 seconds of a kick-off during a 2-1 win against Alania Vladikavkaz; coincidentally on the opening day of the season.

He would return to Fernabahçe in 2013 – a move the Nigerian striker described as a ‘dream come true’.

This time, he was able to play competitive football for The Yello-Navy Blues, scoring 19 goals in 69 appearances.

Three years later, Emenike was loaned to the English Premier League; precisely West Ham, with an option to make the move permanent.

Furthermore, Emenike had spells at Olympiakos, Las Palmas and Westerlo before his retirement in 2019.
