Leicester City bid farewell to Super Eagles forward, Kelechi Iheanacho, ending his remarkable seven-year tenure at the King Power stadium.
The Nigerian forward, 27, joined the Foxes from Manchester City in August 2017, leaving a lasting legacy with 61 goals in 232 appearances across all competitions.
One of his standout moments was the FA Community Shield final in August 2021, where his goal secured victory over his former club at Wembley.
Iheanacho’s pinnacle season came in 2020/21, where he notched 19 goals in 39 appearances, including a personal record of 12 in 25 Premier League games.
His heroics in the FA Cup, with four goals in six games, were pivotal in Leicester clinching their first domestic cup trophy in recent memory.
Memorable strikes included a brace against Manchester United in the quarterfinals, the winner against Brighton in the fifth round, and a crucial goal against Southampton in the semifinal.
In the midst of this transition, Leicester City is engaged in negotiations with midfielder Wilfred Ndidi regarding his future beyond the expiry of his current contract this month.
