Tosin Kehinde is excited about the prospect of facing Premier League side Leicester City in Thursday's UEFA Europa Conference League knockout round playoff first leg at the King Power Stadium.
The match against the Foxes is special to Kehinde as he spent the formative years of his career at the Manchester City and Manchester United academies, and came up against current Leicester City players Harvey Barnes, Hamza Choudhury and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall in the Premier League 2.
The former Dream Team VII invitee could also be facing fellow Nigerians Kelechi Iheanacho, Wilfred Ndidi and Ademola Lookman.
Kehinde sounded confident ahead of tomorrow's fixture, saying Randers have a big chance of causing an upset against the Premier League side.
"We are all looking forward to the match. It is going to be a fantastic experience for all of us and we just hope that all goes well," Kehinde said to Randers official website.
"If you perform the tactics correctly, all teams have a chance to beat them. Tomorrow it is really about concentrating and taking advantage of our chances."
The 23-year-old Kehinde started five of the six matches played by Randers in the group stage of the Europa Conference League.
