West Ham United are reportedly waiting on FIFA clarification over whether they have signed Abiola Badirou. The 19-year-old joined the Hammers on trial earlier this summer and has been playing with their development squad.
The issue arose as Badirou never signed a professional deal and was actually an amateur, but as West Ham did all their paperwork they are hopeful FIFA will sanction him to join now.
If Badirou does not sign this month, he is still expected to remain training with the club before signing in January.
