Spanish LaLiga club, Sevilla is considering terminating Super Eagles forward, Kelechi Iheanacho’s contract or implementing a salary cut.
Sporting director, Víctor Orta acknowledged his mistake in choosing Iheanacho as a replacement for En-Nesyri after the striker’s transfer to Fenerbahçe, which has led to a lack of scoring options this season.
Iheanacho’s loan at Middlesbrough has been unproductive, with only one goal and two assists in 15 matches, resulting in criticism from fans.
Middlesbrough last weekend confirmed that the club would not retain the Nigerian, as there is no purchase option in the loan agreement.
Daily Sunsports sourced from Spanish sports news outlet, EstadioDeportivo that Sevilla will need to find a solution for Iheanacho this summer, possibly terminating his contract due to his poor performance and high salary.
This situation adds to Sevilla’s ongoing squad reconstruction efforts.
