I Enjoy Playing With Vardy But… -Iheanacho

Kelechi Iheanacho...on duty for the Super Eagles...

Nigeria’s Super Eagles striker, Kelechi Iheanacho has given reasons why he enjoys playing alongside Jamie Vardy in a two-man attack at Leicester City.

Iheanacho has played second fiddle to Vardy for the majority of his time at Leicester but the pair are currently playing together due to a plethora of injury problems.

The Nigeria international was on target again after equalising in Saturday’s 2-1 victory at Brighton to claim his seventh strike of the campaign in all competitions, including four in his last seven outings.

With Vardy enduring a prolonged barren run in front of goal, Iheanacho now has as many goals from open play this season as his high-profile team-mate.

And speaking after scoring at the weekend, Iheanacho said: ”I like playing with him (Vardy) because he can run in behind and gives me options, or he can get the ball and go deep. I like playing with him but when he’s not around I can play by myself.

“I’m happy with the goals that are coming now. I feel good.”
