Trabzonspor, a prominent team in the Turkish Super Lig, is eyeing a potential move for Nigerian striker Kelechi Iheanacho. Reports from Turkish sports outlet Sporx suggest that Trabzonspor is considering Iheanacho as an alternative to his compatriot, Paul Onuachu, who is currently on loan from Southampton.
Onuachu, a towering forward, has been a key player for Trabzonspor, but the club may struggle to meet Southampton’s valuation for a permanent transfer. As a result, Trabzonspor is exploring the possibility of signing Iheanacho, who is nearing the end of his contract with Leicester City.
With no signs of Iheanacho renewing his contract with Leicester, the talented striker is expected to leave the Foxes on a free transfer. This makes him an attractive and cost-effective option for Trabzonspor in the upcoming transfer window.
As Trabzonspor weighs their options for the summer, the potential addition of Iheanacho could bring a new dimension to their attacking lineup. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing transfer saga.
