Leicester City hope to complete deal for Manchester City striker Kelechi Iheanacho before trip to Hong Kong

Leicester are moving closer to signing Kelechi Iheanacho from Manchester City in a £25million deal, but the deal could still take a few weeks to be finalised.

Craig Shakespeare has been looking to add to his attack and wants to have the deal completed before the club fly to Hong Kong for the Premier League Asia Trophy.

City have been willing to sell Iheanacho as Pep Guardiola reshapes his squad and the Nigeria international is keen to move to the King Power Stadium.
