Kelechi Iheanacho’s father, James, has
confirmed that his son is set to sign for
English Premier League side, Manchester
City.
Iheanacho has courted interested from big
European clubs, after he emerged as the
best player at the U-17 World Cup in UAE,
where he scored six goals, as the Golden
Eaglets lifted the trophy.
“As I am talking to you, I have chosen in my
mind that Kelechi is going to Manchester
United,” he said on SuperSport’s ‘Monday
Night Football’, before correcting himself by
saying: “I have told you that he is going to
Manchester City.”
He also revealed that the player’s family
made the decision together, on Monday
night, after praying together.
“We prayed [on Monday] and, after due
consultations with family members, we
came up with Manchester City, believing he
has a future there,” he explained. “That is
where he will be uplifted.”
James last week raised an alarm that his
son was missing, but it understood he
returned on Monday morning, before the
decision was made. - See more at: http://360naija.com/?p=7201&preview=true#sthash.p7l5OL2o.dpuf
