Leicester City: Kelechi Iheanacho development emerges amid Aston Villa talk

Kelechi Iheanacho, a striker for Leicester City, is expected to make an announcement before the end of this month on his future,

and it appears that the 27-year-old will be leaving the King Power Stadium this summer.

According to a report from Turkish publication Takvim,

many European clubs are showing interest in the 27-year-old.

Leicester has had a great season despite being relegated from the Premier League the previous year.

The Foxes made an instant return to the English football premier league

by winning the Championship title on their first try under new manager Enzo Maresca.

Indeed, Iheanacho is attracting plenty of attention from elsewhere.

Recent reports claimed that Aston Villa director Monchi

recently held talks with the 27-year-old’s representatives with a view to a summer move.

But it looks like there will be a lot of interest from other teams

for the Premier League team to sign the Nigerian international.

The most recent report indicates that clubs in Germany and Italy,

along with three Turkish teams (Fenerbahce, Galatasaray, and Besiktas),

are all interested in signing the Leicester forward.

Additionally, it is said that before the end of this month,

Iheanacho will decide where he will play football starting next season.

Therefore, it may not be long before these interested teams

and Leicester learn where the striker will be playing for the 2024–2025 season and beyond.

Iheanacho will be a valuable addition for teams that are interested.

It appears that whoever team is able to sign Iheanacho from Leicester

in the summer will benefit from having him on board.

In recent months, the striker has found himself a little lower on the team

at The King Power Stadium, which may be related to his contractual status.

Nevertheless, he’s demonstrated in the past

that he can score goals at the highest level—something he’s done with Manchester City and Leicester City.

He might therefore develop into a very valuable outlet for one of those clubs,

leading the line at a fairly high level as a result.

In addition, the fact that he has an expiring contract in the summer,

which guarantees that he can be transferred for free,

implies that financially speaking,

this is a risk-free decision that might pay off if they can eventually sell Iheanacho.

In light of all of that, it appears that,

should the striker decide to leave Leicester City at the end of the current campaign,

these interested teams may choose to press for the striker’s acquisition in the summer.
