Arsenal were interested in signing me, says Nigeria star Iheanacho

Nigeria international Kelechi Iheanacho says he preferred Portuguese giants FC Porto over English side Manchester City.

The 20-year-old striker joined City's Academy from Taye Academy on 10 January 2014 and he has since revealed that his father convinced him to join the English side.

”After the tournament, a few European clubs were interested in signing me: Arsenal, Porto and some others," Iheanacho told Theplayerstribune.com.

"And also, of course, Manchester City. I did not know much about these clubs.

“I thought I would choose Porto, because I knew many African players had success with the club in the past," he continued.

"I didn’t really believe that I could play at City because they had so many incredible players.

"But my father told me that I should choose City because he believed that I could achieve great things there,"he added.

"So I listened to my father."

He would have done better elsewhere. City will sign another striker in the summer and that's the end of him.

Wise father. football is all about the money

Biting his fingers!


Wanted play in a big club and got it. Now his saying he prefers FC Porto


When Mancester City is done with him, he will heading next to Qatar or Kuwait

Kelechi Iheayancho, the below average striker who will be one of the reason Man City are not going to Champion's league next season and also a reason why Guardiola may lose his job. He should join his benchwarmer big brother, Mikel and go to China
