It's okay to have setbacks or life difficulties as humans. In fact, it's almost impossible to live on earth and have everything going as planned. For Kelechi Iheanacho, Life has thought him that no matter the glory of a man, he must take heed less he falls. The 23 year old Nigerian international rose to stardom after his last appearance for his country in their U-17 World Cup.
From there, he got picked up by Manchester City, and of course, his best wasn't enough to grant him Spotlight at the Etihad. He began to dwindle and was seen as a surplus player especially under Pep Guardiola. He had to Move to Leichester for greener pastures, even at that, the once promising future Ballon d'or contender struggled to find his boots at the King Power stadium. This career travails of young Iheanacho have seen him lose his place in the national team and have not been called up for national duty for some time now.
However, fortune is beginning to shine on him again and the young man has started proving his mettle at the King Power stadium, thanks to the opportunity granted by Brendan Rodgers. Iheanacho has been in great form for the foxes and have scored six goals in twelve appearances across all competitions this season, despite starting the season in a very disappointing note. I think it's time for Nigeria to call him back, he has shown great diligence and I think we should give him that respect.
