Former Leicester and England forward Emile Heskey says Nigeria international forward Kelechi Iheanacho has what it takes to play for any team in the world.
Ahead of the FA Cup final against Chelsea on Saturday, the ex forward said the 24 year old Nigerian has proven that he can fit into any team base on his recent run of goals and display for Leicester City.
According to Heskey, Iheanacho who scored the winner in the semi final against Manchester United carried an unusual threat that most teams in the world need to go past opponents.
“ You look at Iheanacho and you see a player who has an unpredictable way of playing. A character that will make him fit into any team in the world. His movement with and without the ball is magnificent”, Heskey said in his preview of the FA Cup final.
Iheanacho will be looking to carry his fine form since the start of the year into the final of the FA Cup. He will be aiming to add to his tally of 18 goals in all competitions with five in the FA Cup against a Chelsea side who are rated as one of the most in form team in Europe at the moment.
