'We want Iheanacho to stay' - Leicester City hopeful 'Seniorman' will remain at the club

Leicester City manager, Enzo Maresca has said Super Eagles striker Kelechi Iheanacho has not decided whether or not to leave the club despite interest from other clubs.

Maresca said that the club is ready to sit down with the striker regarding his current situation at the King Power Stadium.

Speaking to the press about the future of the Iheanacho, the Italian manager said the issue regarding the forward is something they want to sort out soon.

"This is one of the things on the table. It’s one of the things we need to discuss with the player. Most of the time we think about the club but we need to see the desire of the player…player, club, and manager. It’s one of the things we need to do soon to clarify the situation," Maresca was quoted by Foxes of Leicester

He also emphasized that Leicester want to discuss extending the player’s stay at the club. However, to Maresca, the situation remains unclear as the Iheanacho has yet to show a desire to stay with the Foxes or find the exit door.

"Kele played against Coventry, very good. He played the other day, goal, assist. It’s one of the things I said from day one that to realize something important…but we also need to know the desire of the player."

Iheanacho already has one goal and an assist for Leicester City this new season and will aim to continue his run for them when they host Cardiff City in their next game on 19 August.
