Kelechi Iheanacho’s football career has been a path of transformation; he has switched clubs twice in search of a better opportunity.
Iheanacho joined Sevilla when his contract with Leicester City expired after spending the previous season there, when the club performed admirably in winning the Championship.
Despite scoring three goals in the Copa Del Rey, he only managed to score one goal in 11 games in La Liga, many of which came off the bench.
In pursuit of more regular playing time, he then relocated to Middlesbrough in the English Championship.
“I want to clarify that the first two strikers were intended to serve as complements, supporting the primary striker, Youssef, and another emerging talent, Isaac,” Orta said when Joaquin Caparros was introduced as Sevilla’s new head coach.
Nevertheless, it is clear that our choice to invest in Kelechi this season did not produce the expected outcomes, and we are now investigating the contributing circumstances.
Separately, it has been rumored that Newcastle United, a Premier League team, is interested in Tolu Arokodare, a forward for KRC Genk.
This season, Arokodare’s efforts in the Belgian Pro League have been outstanding. In 38 games in all competitions, the Nigerian forward has scored 20 goals and provided five assists, demonstrating his talent.
According to reports, Newcastle has contacted Genk about the €17 million Arokodare deal.
It should be noted that last summer, the 24-year-old turned down a chance to sign with Trabzonspor of the Turkish Super Lig.
