By Bunmi Blair. Bought for £25m‎, yet to score or provide an assist in four English Premier League, EPL games. The pressure is already mounting on Nigerian born Leicester City's forward Kelechi Iheanacho to start delivering for the club he joined this summer. ‎A breakdown of matches he has played so far this season shows that he has been used as a substitute in three of his four EPL appearances and played just 105 minutes of a possible 540 minutes in Leicester City’s first six games of the season. KELECHI IHEANACHO He rose to prominence as an offensive midfielder, in his days with Nigeria's national youth teams. Scored six goals and provided seven assists, which earned him the MVP award at the 2013 FIFA U-17 world cup.

By Bunmi Blair The Super Eagles of Nigeria look set to complete a double over the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon and could become the first African side to secure a place at the Russia 2018 World Cup today. A win for Nigeria will take them to 12 points in a group that will also see Algeria host Zambia on Tuesday and with Algeria expected to win or pick at least one point in the game.
