Blessing Kaku (born 5 March 1978) is a former

Enosis Neon Paralimni and Belgian side K.R.C. Genk. He also played in England for Bolton Wanderers, and Derby County
but failed to make an impact in his short spells with both of the English clubs.

Transfer Controversy

His transfer from

Stevens inquiry report in June 2007, concerns were raised because of the apparent conflict of interest between agent Craig Allardyce and his father Sam Allardyce (Bolton manager at the time) and the club itself.[1]
