Spanish giants, Sevilla, have terminated the contract of Super Eagles forward Kelechi Iheanacho.

In a statement on the club's official website, both parties agreed to terminate the contract.

Recall Iheanacho joined the Rojiblancos on a free transfer last summer. He was sent out on loan to Sky Bet Championship club Middlesbrough in January.

The Nigerian scored once and provided two assists in 15 appearances for Middlesbrough.

The 28-year-old made 15 appearances across all competitions in the first half of the season, netting three times.

“Sevilla FC and Kelechi Iheanacho have reached an agreement to terminate the contract of the Nigerian striker, who was linked to the Nervion club until June 30, 2026. Iheanacho joined the club last summer after ending his contract with Leicester City,” reads a statement on the club’s official website.

His poor run in form led to his exclusion from the matchday squad in each of
Sevilla’s opening three league games of the season.

The versatile player has been linked with a move to Scottish Premiership champions Celtic where he would reunite with manager Brendan Rodgers.

He worked under Rodgers during his time with Leicester City.
