Boreham Wood are hopeful of signing former Premier League striker Yakubu on a free transfer.
Yakubu, who scored 95 Premier League goals for Portsmouth, Middlesbrough, Everton and Blackburn, has been training __with the National League outfit since the summer.
The 33-year-old is also coaching the younger players and manager Luke Garrard is keen to sign the former Nigeria international.
“Yak is courteous, he comes and watches the games, he pays entrance. He’s fully on board __with what I’m doing and what the club are doing,” Garrard told BBC Three Counties Radio.
“I’m trying my hardest to get him to sign a contract. But, as it stands, I don’t know his current situation in terms of where he’s going or what he has planned.
“He teaches things I haven’t seen because he’s played at the highest level.”
