The manager of Seville GarcΓa Pimienta has confirmed that Kelechi Iheanacho will make a decision about her future before the winter transfer window is closed.
The Nigerian striker is approaching an exit after fighting to ensure a regular place in the team since he joined Seville in a free transfer last summer.
Iheanacho, 28, has failed to score in nine appearances in LaLiga, but has achieved three goals in the Copa del Rey.
Despite their lack of impact on the league, several clubs are interested in signing it, with Seville open to a loan or permanent transfer.
βHe has many offers and is deciding which is the best option. It will be called, but you have to decide which is your best option, βPepper said at a press conference before Getafe game.
Competition is heated
Iheanacho’s situation has been further complicated by the arrival of Nigeriano Akor Adams from Montpellier.
Seville acquired the services of forward Adams Akor.
With Adams now on the team, the former Manchester City striker is even lower in the attack hierarchy of Seville.
Despite this, interest in Iheanacho is still strong. Clubs in England, Italy, France and Greece are monitoring their availability.
However, he has already rejected a movement towards Greek Panathinaikos giants, since a change to Greece is not a priority for him.
Sky Sports Germany’s transfer expert Florian Plettenberg also reports that Iheanacho has rejected an Italian side approach Venezia.
Meanwhile, although Leeds United has ruled out a movement, other championship clubs, including Sheffield United, continues to watch over it.
Ligue 1 Side Olympique Marseille has previously been linked to the Nigerian striker.
Exhausted time
With less than 48 hours remaining in the winter transfer window, Iheanacho must quickly make a decision. If a movement does not materialize in the next few days, it runs the risk of becoming a marginal player under Garcia Pimienta for the rest of the season.
