Why Daka signing will benefit Iheanacho at Leicester City - Ex-Reggiana star Olorunleke

The Italy based tactician argues the arrival of the Zambia international will help keep the Super Eagles star on his toes in Brendan Rodgers’ squad

Mathew Olorunleke believes the arrival of Patson Daka at Leicester City would ensure Kelechi Iheanacho does not relax.

The Zambian’s move to the King Power Stadium was officially announced on Wednesday, on a five-year deal following his departure from Red Bull Salzburg, bringing an end to his trophy-laden four-year career in Austria.

Daka is expected to add to the Foxes’ attacking firepower as they compete in several competitions ranging from the Europa League to the Carabao Cup in the 2021-22 campaign.
