Leicester City are keen to make Kelechi Iheanacho the most expensive Nigeria star ever by splashing a record 25 million pounds on him as he seems a “different” type of striker from the strikers already on their books.
Leicester top strikers are Jamie Vardy and Islam Slimani.
Vardy used his burst of speed two seasons ago to help Leicester to a most unlikely Premier League conquest, while Slimani’s biggest asset is his aerial prowess.
Iheanacho, on the other hand, is a more technical striker, who is most effective inside the box, likes the ball played to his feet and could also play behind the main striker.
He is also less predictable than the other two more experienced front men.
Leicester will therefore have several options upfront available to them with these three strikers, experts have said.
Odion Ighalo became the most expensive Nigeria star in January, when he moved from Watford in the Premier League of England to Chinese club Changchun Yatai for 20 million pounds.
