Yaya tips Iheanacho for success



Nigerian youngster, Kelechi Iheanacho has been tipped to record massive success in future by Manchester City and Ivory Coast midfielder, Yaya Toure.
Iheanacho has impressed with Manchester City in the club’s tour to the US with manager, Manuel Pellegrini extravagant in his adulation for the 17-year old’s talents.
Toure, the reigning African Footballer of the Year, has moved to salute the prowess of the former Nigeria under-17 star.
“Kelechi is an exciting player. I love the way he plays and I feel that he will have a good career at the club and go on to become one of the players of the future,” he told the club’s official website, mcfc.com.
Iheanacho has been impressive for City in pre-season and scored in his senior debut against Kansas City on July 23.
His performance against the MLS side was so impressive that Pellegrini described him as the “future” of the club.
He showed his display against Kansas City was no fluke when he netted his second goal in as many games against AC Milan on July 27.
Following his heroics in pre-season Toure has now joined Pellegrini to express admiration for the talent of the youngster.
It is still unclear if Iheanacho will be integrated into the full City squad for the 2014/15 season.
