Leicester Eager To Land Iheanacho
Leicester City boss Craig Shakespeare has stated his desire to wrap up the signing of Manchester City striker Kelechi Iheanacho before the season commences on August 11th.
According to reports, a deal in the region of £25million has been agreed for the Nigeria international. Details to finalise the player’s contract which include possible buy-back clause are said to have held up the transfer.
“I’m hoping so, but I am like every other manager at the moment. I think we all find it frustrating but it is the current market,” he told Sky Sports News following Friday’s 0-0 friendly draw with MK Dons.
“You saw with the Harry Maguire one, we got that done quick. When he is in the door, we can announce it.
“At the moment, of course, we are interested in players as most of the Premier League is, but you can see that clubs won’t really talk about it until they are over the line.”
