Wonderkid Kelechi Iheanacho will sign a deal with
Manchester City, according to the player’s father.
Iheanacho was named the best player at
November’s Under-17s World Cup after scoring six
goals, including one in the final, as the Golden
Eaglets triumphed in the United Arab Emirates.
He has since been linked with moves to Porto and
Chelsea but his father, James, said that the Etihad
Stadium will be his boys’ next destination.

“As I am talking to you, I have chosen that Kelechi
is going to Manchester United,” he told Super
Sport’s ‘Monday Night Football’, before appearing to
correct himself by saying: “I have told you that he
is going to Manchester City.”
Iheanacho senior later said that the player’s family
made a joint decision on where he would go in a
meeting on Monday night. “We prayed [on Monday]
and, after due consultations with family members,
we came up with Manchester City, believing he has
a future there,” he explained. “That is where he will
be uplifted.”
The young striker had been declared missing by his
father on Friday after he had left his home in Owerri
without alerting his family but returned early on
Monday morning before a decision on his future was
made.
James has been integral in his son’s fledgling
career, with rumours that he had valued the starlet
at €1 million (£840,000), though he denied those
claims, declaring: “No, those people are my
enemies. I never said that.”
