ACCORDING to Leicester City's goalkeeper, Kasper Schmeichel, Nigeria forward Kelechi Iheanacho is the best finisher at the club.

This was revealed by former England and Liverpool center-forward, Emile Heskey who quoted Schmeichel during a post-match interview with BT sports. 

"Kasper Schmeichel says Iheanacho is the best finisher at the club and that is fantastic. The finish was not easy at all," said Heskey.

"It’s great for him to score, especially with Jamie Vardy being out. The club relies on Vardy but it’s not just about him."

Iheanacho was on fire at the UEFA Europa conferences league against Rennes, scoring a superb goal. The Nigerian international has scored or assisted in all competitions Leicester City has been involved in.

He and fellow clubmate Ademola Lookman and Wilfred Ndidi are among the players to have been invited to represent Nigeria at the World Cup Qualifiers fixture against Ghana.
