NIGERIA and Leicester City forward, Kelechi Iheanacho has been ruled out of action for a couple of weeks due to an injury to his adductor muscle, which he picked up in the match against Leeds United.
Iheanacho, who played a vital role in the 1-1 draw against Leeds United on Tuesday, April 25, 2023, underwent a scan that revealed he had damaged his adductor muscles during the game and would end up missing some of the remaining games of the season.
Club Manager, Dean Smith said at Friday's pre-match press conference: "He's got a tear in his adductor muscle. He's out for a number of weeks. I'm not going to rule him out for the rest of the season, but it's going to be tough to get him back. Hopefully, we can. It's a blow.
“He came on at half-time against Man City and did so well. He played really well in the Wolves game as well. He scored the penalty and created chances. His all-round displays have been really good, so it'll be a loss, but it's an opportunity for others."
With this Injury, Leicester City will be short of the player, who has eight goals and four assists this season as he will miss games against Everton, Fulham, and Liverpool.
