Kelechi Iheanacho, born on 3 October 1996 in Nigeria, currently plays as a striker for Celtic Football Club, wearing the number 17 jersey. He stands at 6ft (1.85m) tall and tips the scales at 12st 12lb (82kg).
As per Transfermarkt, Iheanacho currently prides himself on a market value hovering around £3.2m.
In the month of January 2014, Iheanacho moved to Manchester City in the English Premier League. Over two seasons (2015-2017), he made 46 first team appearances for the club, netting a total of twelve goals in league matches.
In a £25m move in August 2017, Iheanacho transferred to Leicester City in the Championship. Between 2017 and 2024, he was a regular figure in the Foxes' squad, with 173 first team appearances and 31 goals to his name across league matches.
July 2024 saw Iheanacho switch to Sevilla in the LaLiga in Spain. He made just nine first team appearances during the 2024-2025 season. A unexpected loan move to Middlesbrough in the Championship in England materialised in February 2025, where he managed a single goal across fifteen appearances.
With his Middlesbrough loan spell finished, Iheanacho made a return to Sevilla in June 2025. Following another lacklustre season featuring a meagre nine appearances, Iheanacho found himself in transfer talks once again.
In September 2025, Iheanacho was on the move again, this time to join Celtic in the Scottish Premiership. The current season (2025-2026) at Celtic has seen Iheanacho make four first team appearances, finding the back of the net twice. He has also featured in the League Cup 2025 - 2026 with two starts, and the Europa League 2025 - 2026, managing a single goal from two starts and a further two appearances as a substitute.
