Kelechi Iheanacho: Leicester forward signs new deal until 24

[Bigpokey24]

Leicester City forward Kelechi Iheanacho has signed a new deal to keep him at the club until 2024.

The 24-year-old has scored seven times in his last four appearances for the Foxes, and was named Premier League player of the month for March.

He has made 117 appearances, scoring 32 goals in total, since moving to Leicester from Manchester City on a five-year contract in 2017.

"I can't express how I'm feeling," said Nigeria international Iheanacho.

"I'm excited, I'm happy, I'm overwhelmed! It's a great moment and I'm happy that Leicester City gave me a new contract.

"It's been a great time here. It's not been easy, but there's a lot of people here that are good people, great people to work with. They are nice people and they make me feel comfortable and welcome since I came in.

"It's been really great being here. It's like a family. I'm happy being here and hopefully I can stay here many more years."

That is good news despite what the detractors thought it seems like his in a good place mentally and physically and possibly socially so it’s a win,win situation for him!

He should've waited to test the market, could've likely gotten a better deal with a better team. Now its more likely he'll be back on the bench when more favored plays recover from injuries.

In case you missed out on the latest news, there are currently only two teams in the EPL better than Leicester; ManCity and ManU. So, which one of those would you like to trade him to


Cheers.

You have the comprehension level of a 3yr old. We're talking about a player that's potentially one of the best in the world and you're fixated on a 30k pay raise. Do u know the kind of money players like Harland are commanding? If you only posted about things you know about you'd only have 10posts instead of almost 90k. Olodo.

Thats how you guys told Odemwingie to "go to QPR" he went and they locked the gate at him. Please show us the offers Kelechi got from Spain and PSG???

I can guarantee you that he did not get an offer from any top club
