Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers hopes Kelechi Iheanacho will maintain his recent impressive scoring form when the Foxes host Manchester United in Sunday’s Emirates FA Cup quarter-final tie, reports Completesports.com.
Iheanacho’s treble helped Leicester City to their biggest win of the campaign against Sheffield United last Sunday.
The Nigerian has now scored 10 goals in all competitions this season, five of which have come in the last three games.

“I thought it was a fantastic interview. The humility he had to score a hat-trick and thank everyone else. It was authentic,”Rodgers told a news conference on Friday.
“He respects his life as a footballer. He appreciates the support he gets from everyone. He’s been very productive for us. As a person, he’s a great guy and plays with a smile on his face.
” He rarely misses a day of training. When he’s asked upon, he produces in the main. There have been some performances where he hasn’t been at his most confident.”
