Crystal Palace are expected to make an offer for Manchester City forward Kelechi Iheanacho. Iheanacho has fallen in the pecking order over the course of the last season and Manchester City are willing to choose a suitor for him. The talented youngster is likely to depart the club and Palace are very keen to bring the player to Selhurst Park
The 20-year-old once has been heavily compared to the likes of Marcus Rashford but due to lack of chances he has failed to match up to his potential and with the arrival of Gabriel Jesus, his chances are going to be very slim. So, keeping in mind of his career growth, a move from the Etihad seems justified.
Palace recently appointed Frank de Boer as the manager and the club hierarchy are expected to hand him with a huge transfer kitty to fulfil his wish list. The Dutch manager is famous for developing youngsters and the idea to work with Iheanacho might be very tempting for him and vice versa.
The 20-year old Nigerian international has a very good scoring rate and could be the ideal partner for Christian Benteke. Benteke had a pretty fruitful season last term but his inconsistency has been a problem for the Eagles.
The Belgian netted 15 goals in the last season but his last six goals came in the last ten matches. So his unsteadiness is something Boer needs to change and the addition of a young striker might bring out the best in him.
City have slapped a price tag of £20m on the player and Palace are ready to match up to their valuation. West Ham United are one of the frontrunners to land the player but the East London club have so far failed to reach an agreement with the player and Slaven Bilic might consider alternate options.
Despite making a very limited number of appearances, the player has impressed and has netted on seven occasions for City last season. Pep Guardiola is expected to offload a number of players and City are likely to sell him if a right offer comes.
The Nigerian international has the fire in him to succeed in the Premier League and his goal scoring rate speaks for him. Since bursting onto the scene, the youngster has gone on to score 21 goals in 64 appearances for the Sky Blues. Boer is ready to make some high profile signings and Iheanacho could be the first of many for the newly appointed manager.
