This boy is good period. Better than Onuachu and Dessers combined. on his day Iheanacho is the ONLY player who can give Osimhen good competition in that team Facts. also That penalty miss is very rare when it comes to Iheanacho. as his leicester city team mates have confirmed in the past. Kelechi Iheanacho does not miss penelaties in training. if Iheanacho had the self belief and drive Osimhen possess, He would be as equally unstoppable
Ehen? And Vardy still dey bench am oh.
