Kelechi Iheanacho

Weird I know but that Kansas game is still one of my highlights of this season. He looked very special this guy, really hope we see him in the Fa cup or a few cameos of the bench in the league.

Same with me, I know exactly what you mean.

You see something that just seems 'special' & you can't define it fully but it sticks with you.
 
He will probably have to get a few EDS games under his belt first when he does sign for us.

Kelechi Iheanacho's ITC has been delivered to City today. This allows them to apply for a work permit & register him w/ FA. (via @ColinUdoh)

I don't get what this means. Is this the green light or just the start of the process (which would fly in the face of what we previously thought)?

Edit: more......

ITC = International Transfer Certificate. Means his transfer is officially complete and Man City can apply for a Work Permit for him

Sorry to be dim, but this implies he's signed for us but we are just awaiting a work permit? Is that right?
 
There's a BIG problem it would seem. The ITC application appears to have thrown up the fact that some of the money we say we've paid has not found its way to his club, Taye Academy. They are accusing his agents, with the connivance of City, of misappropriating a large part of the fee. Could get interesting.

Flying Eagles Chief coach Manu Garba has revealed that Manchester City FC of England’s doctors removed the Plaster of Paris (POP) in one of Kelechi’s leg last week Thursday.

According to coach Manu Garba, Manchester City’s management called to also express their reservations over the various media reports in Nigeria that they have refused to release the creative midfielder, who won the best player in the last U-17 Championship in United Arab Emirates to join the U-20 team for the 2015 AYC in Senegal.

“Kelechi Iheanacho is a player that can add value to any team. But at present, he has an ankle injury. They had just removed the PoP on Thursday. I spoke with the Man City official who called me that they are receiving negative media reports from here in Nigeria that they are not willing to release the player. He said Kelechi is down with injury, that when he is fit, and there is time, he would join the team”.

Manu Garba further confirmed that the player would surely add value to his team , and that he would not hesitate to invite him as soon as he is fit: ” If Kelechi were to be around in the match we played against Enyimba, he would have added value to the team, because, he is a player who would have converted some of those chances that were thrown away. He would have buried some of them”.

The former junior international boasted that though the Man City player would be valuable in team, but that does not imply that he would have automatic jersey in the team.

“In my team, there is no automatic shirt for anybody or any player. This was obvious when Iheanacho came for the qualifiers against Tanzania, he could not displace those in the team and he started on the bench. When he comes back, he has to show us what he is capable of doing before he would pick a starting shirt or making the 21-man list”.

The former Gombe United player said: ” We do not rely on individual player. If you recall, during the World Cup when Isaac Success got injured, a lot of Nigerians were worried. They did not know that Taiwo Awoniyi was sitting and waiting for an opportunity and he proved everyone wrong by scoring four goals and a lot of assists. There are a lot of players that did not partake in this team, still waiting for chances and they are as good as any other player,” he said

City's teen prodigy Kelechi Iheanacho (18) is joining La Liga side Málaga on loan according to ElDesmarque Málaga.
 
Surely it deserves a new thread.......;-)

Great news for the kid and us,he should get decent game time and will learn plenty.
 
Chris Bailey ‏@baileymcfc now
@City_Watch @ManCityBrazil don't think so chaps!

Chris works on the website and stuff, so it seems it maybe isn't the case?

Edit: That may just be about the reserve team info though, maybe they want him in and around the first team.
