"He's The Best Penalty Taker I've Seen", Premier League Veteran Hails Iheanacho by TheLoneCitizen(m): 5:40pm On Aug 06, 2020
Former Captain of Austria National team, Christian Fuchs has labelled Iheanacho "The Best Penalty Taker I've Seen".

Fuchs, at 34, is one of the oldest active players in the Premier League and has played in 8 different teams in his 19 year career yet rates Iheanacho as an unbelievable penalty taker.

Wilfred Ndidi and Christian Fuchs both named Iheanacho as the most reliable penalty taker in Leicester.

Asked to name the City player he’d back to score a decisive penalty, Ndidi chose his countryman, saying: “Kelechi’s never missed a penalty. I’ve never seen him miss a penalty,” to which Fuchs agreed.

Ayoze Perez, relatively new to the club, responded with a raised eyebrow: “When is he even taking penalties?”

But Ndidi and Fuchs doubled down. Ndidi said: “You’ve not seen him? He never misses,” before Fuchs added: “He’s unbelievable. The best penalty taker I’ve seen.”

In total, Leicester have received 21 penalties since Iheanacho arrived from Manchester City.
Jamie Vardy has taken 17 of those, scoring 14. The others have fallen to James Maddison, who has scored one from two, Ayoze Perez, who bagged his only spot-kick, and Demarai Gray, who saw his only penalty saved.

In his club career, Iheanacho has only taken two penalties. At Man City vs Wolves in the FA Cup and Leicester vs Wolves in the Carabao Cup.

And yes, he scored both.
