However, his representative has cooled down those reports after revealing that the striker is well set to remain with Trabzonspor next term.

He is doing very well at Trabzonspor, he has a great chance of being able to play the African Cup,” Battistini said.

“He has important potential and he is demonstrating it. Trabzonspor will buy the striker from Leeds.

Ekuban looks set to feature in his maiden Africa Cup of Nations after netting twice in two games for the Black Stars last month.
