Exclusive: Kelechi Iheanacho To Follow Pellegrini To Chelsea, Manchester United?
<b>Allnigeriasoccer.com</b> understands that outgoing Manchester City coach Manuel Pellegrini will attempt to take Kelechi Iheanacho to any club he’s heading to in the not too distant future.<br /><br />The former Real Madrid and Villarreal manager will end his association with The Citizens in the summer, with Bayern Munich coach Pep Guardiola set to succeed him at M11 3FF. <br /><br />Manuel Pellegrini is expected to snub an offer to return as Chile national team coach in favour of managing a Premier League side and has been linked with the Chelsea and Manchester United jobs.<br /><br />The South American took a gamble when he promoted Kelechi Iheanacho to City’s first team just before the start of this season, and the Nigerian has repaid his faith by netting 8 goals from 19 matches across all competitions.<br /><br />Iheanacho is tied to Manchester City until the summer of 2019, having penned a professional contract early last year.<br /><br />He was on the radar of West Ham, Sunderland and Bournemouth in the January transfer window but Pellegrini was not willing to listen to offers from the three teams.<br /><br /><b>Editor</b><br /><br />Photo Credit : mcfc.co.uk<br />
