Aston Villa join Crystal Palace, Trabzonspor in race to sign Super Eagles striker
Published: May 02, 2024According to Football insider, Aston Villa have joined the race to sign Super Eagles forward Kelechi Iheanacho who is set to leave Leicester City this summer.
The Nigeria international has also been linked with Crystal Palace as well as Trabzonspor as an alternative option to Southampton loanee Paul Onuachu.
Aston Villa want to bolster their attack with the signing of another forward this summer and have identified Iheanacho as a potential target.
Ollie Watkins is the first choice striker at the club presently with Jhon Duran playing as a backup to the English international but they want to add another forward to the duo in the summer.
The Villans stand a good chance of participating in the UEFA Champions League next season and it is not a surprise that they want to inject more quality to their squad.
Iheanacho could be open to moving to Villa Park with his contract at Leicester City coming to an end in the summer and he has reportedly rejected a contract extension from the club.
He has fallen down the pecking order of Enzo Maresca recently, failing to make the matchday squad in the last four games, thereby making the chances of him leaving brighter.
