Reports in the UK confirm Olateju is on the radar of several Premier League clubs, including West Ham United, and they hope to sign him during the January transfer window.

“I am really pleased to be able to hit the ground running straight away,” he said with a smile.

“Scoring goals in my first game gave me plenty of confidence and belief.

“It has been great to play my part in helping the team pick up four points from the last two games and start climbing up the table.

“The supporters have really got behind me, and that has meant so much to me as I settle into life here.”

The young prodigy is currently on loan to Malvern Town from Cheltenham.
