Kelechi Iheanacho makes PL team of the week after his three goals contribution

Kelechi Iheanacho has been included in the Premier League team of the week after his three goals contributions in Leicester City’s 4-2 win against Aston Villa on Saturday.

The Super Eagles striker who is rarely used and appreciated by Leicester City boss, Brendan Rodgers, got a rare nod against Aston Villa at Villa Park and he made the most of it.

Kelechi Iheancho scored a goal and provided two beautiful assists to help Leicester City secure their first Premier League win in the new year.

And for his incredible display, he was picked amongst the 10 other best players for week 22.

This season, Kelechi Iheanacho has only started in two Premier League games for Leicester City and he has scored in both games – which begs the question of why he doesn’t start much.
