Super Eagles Star Kelechi Iheanacho Set for England Return
Sevilla forward Kelechi Iheanacho is on the verge of securing a loan move to Championship side Middlesbrough after a difficult spell in Spain.
Iheanacho joined Sevilla on a free transfer last summer but has struggled to make an impact in La Liga.
The Nigerian international has failed to score in nine league appearances for the Rojiblancos, casting doubt on his future at the club.
A move to Middlesbrough presents an opportunity for the 28-year-old to regain form and confidence after his challenging stint in Spain.
Last season, Iheanacho played a crucial role in helping Leicester City secure promotion back to the Premier League. Now, he hopes to contribute to Middlesbrough’s push for a playoff spot in the Championship.
Currently, Middlesbrough sits seventh in the table with 44 points from 29 matches, well within reach of a promotion playoff spot.
The club hopes that Iheanacho’s arrival will bolster their attacking options as they aim to return to the Premier League.
