Manchester City Superkid Kelechi Iheanacho Poised To Make Champions League Bow
Published: February 24, 2016Kelechi Iheanacho could make his Champions League bow on Wednesday night in Manchester City’s clash with Dynamo Kiev at NSC Olimpiyskiy.
The Nigeria international traveled with the Manchester City squad to the Ukrainian capital and was amongst the players that had a feel of the stadium last night.
In the group stage, the 19-year-old Iheanacho did not have a taste of Champions League action as he was not registered for the tournament but was added to the roster when the winter transfer market came to an end following the injury sustained by Nasri.
Of the 21 City players that made the trip to Ukraine, only two are strikers in the shape of Sergio Aguero and Iheanacho and the likelihood of the Super Eagles young star getting game time today is very high.
