Leicester City are close to agreeing a new long-term contract with Kelechi Iheanacho.

The Nigeria forward is close to entering the final 12 months of the five-year deal he signed when arriving at the King Power Stadium from Manchester City in 2017.

Brendan Rodgers is understandably keen to secure Iheanacho's future with the 24-year-old having been in inspired form this term.

The Sun says Iheanacho is ready to put pen to paper on a bumper new deal this summer to commit his future to City.

The report claims the terms include a handsome pay increase with the player set to earn around £90,000-a-week once the contract is agreed.
