Kelechi Iheanacho who is a Super Eagles forward currently playing for Premier League side Leicester City might be on his way to Italian side Roma under coach Jose Mourinho.

But Roma going for Kelechi Iheanacho will be possible only if the club should fail to sign England international Tammy Abraham from reigning European champions Chelsea.

Following the return of Romelu Lukaku to Stamford Bridge, the future of Tammy Abraham at Chelsea is in doubt and Jose Mourinho is interested in having his signature.

Since the arrival of Thomas Tuchel at Chelsea, Tammy Abraham has not been having it rosy and was even left out of the May's Champions League final against Manchester City.

According to the report on Sky Sports, Tammy Abraham has told Roma chiefs for them to give him little time to think about their request.

However, if Roma should fail to land Tammy Abraham from Chelsea, then they will have to submit big offer to Leicester City for the possibility of them to have Kelechi Iheanacho.

This is because the Nigerian forward signed a new three-year deal with the Foxes back in April and Roma chiefs will need to convince Rodgers and his eggheads with big money.
