West Ham in talks for Iheancho

According to reports, there has been indication that West Ham have entered talks for a possible loan switch for Super Eagles forward, Kelechi Iheanacho ahead of the 2019/20 Premier League season.

 

West Ham manager Manuel Pellegrini is hoping to cash in on the Nigerian, who has just nine starts in 30 EPL games for Leicester this season.

Latest reports reveals that Pellegrini has been in constant touch with Iheanacho with the aim of ensuring a possible loan switch this summer.

This is not the first time the 22-year-old might be playing for the Chilean as he had his finest club football career under Pellegrini, scoring 12 goals in his first season at Man City.

Iheanacho fell out of favor after Pellegrini’s exit as he was mostly overlooked by Pep Guardiola before his eventual sale to Leicester City at the beginning of the 2017/18 season.
