Leicester City Football Club has completed the signing of striker Kelechi Iheanacho from Manchester City for an undisclosed fee.


Iheanacho Hoping To Achieve Something Special

Iheanacho Delighted To Join The Foxes

- Kelechi Iheanacho completes transfer to Leicester City from Manchester City

- The 20-year-old forward signs a five-year contract at King Power Stadium
- Nigeria international Iheanacho has scored 21 times in 64 appearances for Manchester City
- He could make his first Leicester City outing against Borussia Monchengladbach on Friday night

The 20-year-old Nigeria international has put pen-to-paper on a contract to 2022 and becomes the fourth exciting addition to Craig Shakespeare’s squad ahead of the new campaign.

Iheanacho will wear the squad no.8 and joins fellow Nigeria internationals Wilfred Ndidi and Ahmed Musa among the Leicester City ranks, as the team continue their pre-season preparations with a friendly at home to German side Borussia Monchengladbach on Friday night.

The striker, who is regarded as one of the most promising young talents in the Premier League, could make his first appearance in City colours at King Power Stadium in City’s final pre-season fixture.

Speaking to LCFC TV, Iheanacho said: “It feels good and I’m happy to be part of this team. I know the ambition of the team and speaking with the manager, he let me know what I need to do – to help the team achieve what they want. I was convinced and I’m happy to be here.

“I was happy speaking with the manager, knowing what the team wants. It gives me more confidence that I will fit in this team and hopefully I’ll achieve a lot.”

Leicester City manager Shakespeare added: “It’s a great signing for us. Kelechi is an enormously talented player that has shown a huge amount of promise at every level in which he’s played.

“We’ve tracked his progress for some time, so we know how much quality he’ll bring to the squad. He’s young, he’s hungry, he’s ready for the next stage of his development and I’m delighted that will be with Leicester City.”

Kelechi is a player of proven Premier League pedigree and he joins a Leicester City strike force bursting with talent ahead of the new Premier League campaign, which kicks off away to Arsenal on Friday 11 August.

Lol...The signing just slow like Indian film

This guy better wake up o.
He had a good start in Man City, only to start going down. Then they moved him to B-Team.
If he doesn't work hard, Musa will just overshadow him in that Leicester, and he will start warming benches once more.

thank God for shaming Nigeria bad belle and your village people
am officially a Leicester fan

I hope he won't be another bench warmer again

cool

Leicester gradually becoming foreign super eagles

Musa should just seek a new club Asap. He's got no chance of playing except Mahrez leaves.

I am now a Leicester fan

I'm happy for the young man. Now, he can get more playing time

Vanquay:
I hope he really blossoms and Man utd buys him in a couple of years, Leicester city seems to be the perfect club for him...All the best in your new path Kelechi...In other news Guadrdiola will regret this transfer and I can't wait to see him fail miserably after all that money he's spent this transfer window.

buy back clause of £50m is with the contract

That's my boy

Yooh!!...kelechi your manhood still lives on...we won't forget that.
