The proposed transfer of Manchester City Nigerian forward Kelechi Iheanacho to Leicester City appears to be close to completion as most betting sites have suspended betting on the move.
Iheanacho who is also a target of West Ham United was as at last week odds on favourite to join Leicester ahead of the Hammers, in a move reportedly set to cost the foxes 25 million pounds. This could be good news for those of you who enjoy playing fantasy football as Iheanacho is likely to be a cheap pick up but will likely bag you plenty of goals.

West Ham were the initial front runners for his signature but their hesitation to accept Manchester City buy back proposal, plus the amount the buy back and transfer fee has left them playing catch up to Leicester in the race to sign the 20 year old.
Although they have accepted City’s buy back proposal, reports of an imminent deal for the forward are way off the mark as both teams are still some poles apart in their valuation of the forward.
