Manchester City has
completed a deal for 17-year-old wonder kid Kelechi Iheanacho, according to the
player's father.
Kelechi caught the eye of
clubs across Europe with his performances at the Under-17 World Cup, where his
six goals helped Nigeria claim victory in the United Arab Emirates.
Previous reports have
suggested Manchester United, Chelsea and Porto wanted to land the young
forward, but now according to his father it is Manchester City who have secured
his services.
"As I am talking to you, I have chosen in my mind that Kelechi is going
to Manchester United," he told Super Sport's 'Monday Night Football',
before he corrected himself by saying: "I have told you that he is going to Manchester City."
He later told MTNFootball:
"We prayed [on Monday] and, after
due consultations with family members, we came up with Manchester City,
believing he has a future there. That is where he will be uplifted."
