'It Was My First Leicester City Goal'- Iheanacho Excited At Prospect Of Facing Leeds United
Published: October 31, 2020Kelechi Iheanacho is excited at the prospect of facing Leeds United in the Premier League on Monday night.
The Nigeria international has fond memories of his last game against the Whites, as he was the headliner at the King Power Stadium, scoring a goal and assisting another to help Leicester City beat the then Championship side 3-1 in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup on October 24, 2017.
Iheanacho acknowledged that Marcelo Bielsa's team have started the season well, with just three points separating them from table toppers Everton.
"It will be a great opportunity to play them once again," Iheanacho told LCFC TV.
"I've played against them before. It was my first Leicester City goal, so hopefully if I get a chance then I will be able to do the same, it will be a great occasion.
"They are back stronger now and they've been doing well and having a good run in the Premier League.

"I think it will be a good test for us and hopefully we can get the points that we need."
Iheanacho, 24 , has made only one start for the Foxes in the English top-flight this season and it came against Aston Villa on matchday five, while he was a substitute against Manchester City and West Ham.
