LEICESTER CITY ended this summer’s longest-running transfer
saga when Kelechi Iheanacho finally completed his £25million move
from Manchester City.
Foxes boss Craig Shakespeare’s dogged pursuit of the 20-year-
old Nigerian strike sensation eventually paid off after his top
summer signing target put pen-to-paper on a five-year-deal.

Leicester were always confident they were in pole position to
land the lethal finisher, who has scored 21 times in 64
appearances for City .
But complex issues over the player’s image rights and a court
case involving a former agent caused the move to drag on
throughout the summer.
Now Iheanacho says he can’t wait to show what he can do in a
Leicester shirt, with a speedy home debut in Friday’s friendly
against Borussia Monchengladbach on the cards.
Iheanacho told LCFC TV: “It feels good to be part of this team. I
know the ambition here and I know what I need to do to help the
team achieve what they want.
“After speaking with the manager I was convinced and happy to
be here. It gives me more confidence that I will fit in this team
and hopefully I’ll achieve a lot.”
Iheanacho’s goal-scoring credentials are impeccable and he is the
supreme penalty box poacher Shakespeare wanted to compliment
Jamie Vardy, Riyad Mahrez and Marc Albrighton.
