Iheanacho Hopes To Nail West Brom

Super Eagles forward, Kelechi Iheanacho could be handed another starting shirt ahead of Sergio Aguero as Manchester City face a tricky tie against West Brom at the Hawthorns Stadium in Saturday’s Premier League match.

Iheanacho has found first team action under Pep Guardiola very handful; however, the little time he has spent on the pitch has been very eventful, scoring three goals and creating three assists in seven appearances in the league.

Regarded as one of the prolific young properties in the Premier League, the Nigerian international may be handed the chance to shoulder the goal scoring responsibility against a West Brom side that would be hoping to shock the Citizens in front of their home supporters.

With a UEFA Champions League clash against ‘almighty’ Barcelona next week Wednesday, Guardiola knows that nothing but a victory at Hawthorns would be a perfect rehearsal for the encounter.
