After the African Cup, during pre-season for my subsequent season, my representative called me and said, 'Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps Inter Milan will call you'.
"During preparing, I put in a few truly pleasant crosses and Redknapp said while snickering, 'That is astonishing. That is astounding. That is the reason the top groups like Entomb need to get you.' So when I returned home, that very day I got a call from Jose and he said, 'You need to come play for me?' I said OK sir. He answered, 'I'll see you in Milan tomorrow'. He just put the telephone down. That is all there is to it, then I finished paperwork for Bury the following day. The rest was history."
