Leicester City boss not happy with setbacks in finalizing Iheanacho's deal

It was seen on Pulse that Leicester City boss, Craig Shakespeare has revealed that he is frustrated at not being able to finalise a deal for Manchester City striker Kelechi Iheanacho.

Contractual issues, including the possibility of a buy-back clause and the unsettled dispute between two agents of Iheanacho, have held up the deal.

Leicester City manager Shakespeare is however hopeful that a deal will be sealed soon for the 20-year-old striker.

"I'm hoping so, but I am like every other manager at the moment. I think we all find it frustrating but it is the current market,” Shakespeare told Sky Sports after their pre-season 0-0 draw with MK Dons on Friday night.

"You saw with the Harry Maguire one, we got that done quick - when he is in the door we can announce it.

“At the moment, of course, we are interested in players as most of the Premier League is, but you can see that clubs won't really talk about it until they are over the line."

Iheanacho could be the fifth summer signing of Leicester City who have already added, Maguire, Vicente Iborra, goalkeeper Eldin Jakupovic and Sam Hughes
