Super Eagles striker Kelechi Iheanacho has struggled to settle down in Spain with Sevilla and now he wants to return to England and revive his career.
According to reports clubs like Wolves, Ipswich Town and Championship side Leeds United are keen to have the player this January and it is now up to Seville to deal. His coach Garcia Pimienta said though he wants Iheanacho to stay, but he would let him go if the situation does not improve.
“I don’t know if Kelechi will stay until the end of the season. There have been offers for him, he is established in England and I’m sure he wants to play more. I understand that he wants to leave,” Sevilla coach Pimienta told Radio Sevilla.
“If he improves what we have, there are no problems. I don’t know why some players fit in better with a club or an environment than others
“But if I consider that he should participate, he will participate. For whatever reason, Iheanacho has not performed here at the level that we all expect.
“With his CV there are things that cannot be explained. Watching him train you say, ‘this kid has plenty of quality.
“This week is the first that he may be able to train with the group. Iheanacho is part of the squad and if he has to play, he will play.”
