EXCLUSIVE: Chelsea, Udinese Make Last Ditch Attempt To Sign Kelechi Iheanacho

The future of Kelechi Iheanacho remains unresolved as more teams are jostling to secure the signature of the Golden Ball winner of the Fifa Under 17 World Cup staged in UAE.

It had earlier been revealed that Porto led the race for his signature but this is a marathon and it appears other clubs are determined to stop the talent from going to northern Portugal. And they might succeed!

Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report that intermediaries representing Chelsea (England) and Udinese (Italy) are presently in Nigeria and are thrashing out a deal with Kelechi Iheanacho’s entourage.

The offers from Chelsea and Udinese, in financial terms, outweigh the proposal from Porto, with both clubs offering the 17 - year - old a four - year contract.

PAOK (Greece) and Arsenal (England) have also been mentioned as suitors for the attacking midfielder.
