Kelechi Iheanacho

Recommended Posts

Posted

Telegraph Sport understands that Leicester have met the price required to sign the Nigeria international and a deal appears increasingly likely to happen this month.

 

It is understood that the capture of Iheanacho could become a Leicester club record if instalments are not reached on the deal which brought Islam Slimani from Sporting Lisbon last year.

I'm struggling to imagine how good Iheanacho and Vardy up front together would be... we'd score shiteloads.

 

It's amazing how the positivity surrounding the club has come flooding back- Shakey in permanently and seemingly confident in his role, Appleton will add a lot to the coaching set up, bringing in some great additions and going about our business in the right way, talk escalating about the stadium expansion. 

 

Shame last summer was the total opposite, but exciting times to be a City fan again!

 Leicester City are poised to capture Kelechi Iheanacho from Manchester City in a £25million deal as reported earlier, news that is now being backed up by the BBC and the ever-reliable John Percy of Telegraph.

But it could have been a much different story, with well-informed West Ham supporter Hugh Southon revealing that West Ham had a deal almost closed for the 20-year-old… only for manager Slaven Bilic to veto it at the eleventh hour.

 

David Sullivan had struck an agreement with both Kelechi and Manchester City, and the transfer was all set to go ahead when Bilic decided to personally pull the plug on it, favouring other targets on the market.

Bilic’s reasoning was that Iheanacho was unproven and too inexperienced – despite statistically having the best minutes per goal ratio in Premier League history, with a goal every 106.5 minutes.

BREAKING NEWS

Leicester City are the new favourites to sign Kelechi Iheanacho after West Ham United dropped out of the race to sign the Manchester City striker.

 

West Ham were close to agreeing a £25m deal to sign the Nigerian striker, but have decided to end their interest.

 

Leicester remain in talks to sign Iheanacho, but any proposed deal could not be agreed until he returns from holiday.

They do need proven goalscorers with some experience. if KI takes a bit of time to settle then we should still have vards banging them in. wet spam dont have that luxury and bilic knows its his neck on the block if it goes TU

Yeeesssssss. This kid will be one hell of a signing imo. Can't wait for confirmation of this. Please don't let us down Rudders.

Um. What about the buy-back though? I assume since the deal was going to go through for 20 for West Ham, the extra 5 is for no buy-back? What are folks thinking here?
