Leicester remain confident of finalising a £25million switch for Man City hitman Kelechi Iheanacho

Leicester remain confident of finalising a £25million switch for Man City hitman Kelechi Iheanacho.

The Nigerian international striker was offered £4.4million a year to join French champions Monaco.

But Iheanacho prefers to stay in the Premier League after becoming surplus to requirements at Man City under Pep Guardiola.

Iheanacho, who scored 21 goals in 64 appearances for City, has also been tipped as a potential makeweight in
the £50million deal to sign Kyle Walker from Spurs.

But MirrorSport understands Iheanacho,20, has told Leicester officials he will join them and the deal is just
being held up by a dispute with his former agent.
