Musa, Iheanacho must leave Leicester City —Rohr

By Taofeek Babalola

Super Eagles technical adviser, Gernot Rohr has advised Super Eagles duo of Ahmed Musa and Kelechi Iheanacho to exploit January transfer window to look for new clubs, Sportinglens.blogspot.com reports.


The Nigerian internationals have been out of favour for selection at Leicester City since the arrival of new coach.

And with few months to 2018 World Cup in Russia, the German coach, who was a guest on Monday Night Football show, believes the duo need a move to secure regular playing time.

“This month is very important to these players to find other clubs, when they will play and have competition, especially for the players who are in England who are not playing.  We are now in the transfer window and we will talk to these players to find a club where they will be playing regularly. It is very important,” Rohr said.

Musa, who joined Leicester City from CSKA Moscow for an undisclosed fee in July 2016, scored just two goals in 21 Premier League Appearances. The Nigeria international frontman signed a four-year deal with the former Premier League champions.


Leicester City completed the signing of Iheanacho from Manchester City for an undisclosed fee in August 2017 and he has managed only nine premier league appearances since his arrival.  The 20-year-old put pen-to-paper on a contract to 2022.
