The Citizens’ youth wunderkind is pleased with his
performance for City, insisting his side is ready for
the English topflight season
Nigeria youth international, Kelechi Iheanacho has
revealed that he had a ‘very good’ pre-season
with Manchester City.
The 18-year-old was on target for City in their 4-2
defeat to Stuttgart on Saturday at the Mercedes-
Benz Arena.
And he has exuded sureness in his performance in
the pre-season where he featured in five games
and also provided two goals and two assists.
"I thank God for my performance, it's a very good
performance in pre-season," he told City TV.
"We've played six games, I've played in five games
and I have two goals and two assists, so it's a
very good performance for me and I'm happy with
the performance."
"It's a tough game against a strong team
[Stuttgart], so it was a very difficult game but we
shouldn't have lost,” he added.
"Because we are the big team, quality players are
playing but it's the game, you can lose or win.
"I composed myself, I scored the goal, we needed
more goals in the second-half but we couldn't
score as much.
"But I was happy to score in this game,” he
concluded.
Iheanacho could feature prominently in Manuel
Pellegrini’s squad in the new season after Stevan
Jovetic joined Inter Milan with Edin Dzeko on the
verge of completing his move to AS Roma.
