​Man City forward Iheanacho completes Leicester medical

Kelechi Iheanacho is on the verge of finalising his move to Leicester City after he successfully completed his medical on Wednesday.

The Nigerian forward has been forced out of Manchester City, with his opportunities having been severely limited since the arrival of Gabriel Jesus at the Etihad.

The 20-year old has agreed personal terms with the Foxes and the two clubs have come to an agreement for the fee, believed to be £25m.

City believe Iheanacho can become a world-class striker one day, and so they have included a clause in the deal that allows them to purchase him back for £50m.
