Iheanacho bi mogao napustiti Leicester City ovog ljeta
Although Leicester City have only just been promoted back to the Premier League at the first time of asking, one of their players could well be looking to pastures new over the summer. The Foxes were pegged back towards the latter stages of the Championship season but they were, in truth, head and shoulders above many of their English second-tier opponents. Despite this, Kelechi Iheanacho may not be too happy at the club. Former Everton CEO, Keith Wyness, speaking on Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, believes that a move could be afoot, and to his former club potentially. “There will have been discussions about his future behind the scenes and both sides may be close,” he said. “He could be trying to put fan pressure on the board. All these little things aren’t a coincidence, there is usually something going on behind the scenes. “I think he can do a big job for Premier League sides, he’s someone I’d keep an eye on. “I know Everton have been interested in him, and he’s got the ability to get a good move in the Premier League.” Iheanacho is still only 27 years of age, and has a number of seasons left in the game. With his contract up at the end of June, he therefore represents a reasonable hire for any teams that are interested in his services. Everton may need to get creative in terms of their accounting in order to be able to afford the front man, but with five goals in 10 Championship starts (WhoScored), he could well be a value for money hire.
Unatoč nedavnom povratku Leicestera u Premier ligu nakon samo godinu dana, jedan od njihovih igrača vjerovatno traži novi klub ovog ljeta. Iako su Lisice slabile prema kraju sezone u Championshipu, bili su uistinu mnogo bolji od mnogih drugoligaških protivnika u Engleskoj. Ipak, Kelechi Iheanacho se možda ne osjeća previše sretan u klubu. Bivši izvršni direktor Evertona, Keith Wyness, govoreći na Football Insider-ovom Inside Track podcastu, vjeruje da bi mogao biti u toku transfer, možda čak i ka njegovom bivšem klubu. “Sigurno su vođene rasprave o njegovoj budućnosti iza scene i obje strane bi mogle biti blizu,” rekao je. “Mogao bi pokušati staviti pritisak navijača na upravu. Sve ove male stvari nisu slučajnost, obično se nešto dešava iza scene. Mislim da može obaviti veliki posao za Premier ligaške timove, on je neko koga bih zadržao na oku. Znam da je Everton bio zainteresovan za njega, i on ima sposobnost da se preseli u dobar klub u Premier ligi.”Iheanacho ima samo 27 godina i ima još nekoliko sezona pred sobom. S obzirom da mu ugovor ističe krajem juna, on predstavlja razumnu opciju za bilo koji tim koji je zainteresovan za njegove usluge. Everton bi mogao morati biti kreativan kada su u pitanju finansije kako bi mogli priuštiti ovog napadača, ali sa pet golova na 10 startova u Championshipu (WhoScored), on bi mogao biti dobar izbor za svoju vrijednost.
