Scottish champions Celtic may struggle to keep Kelechi Iheanacho, as the window to trigger a one-year contract extension has closed, leaving the forward’s future in doubt. The 29-year-old was notably absent from the team’s initial pre-season workouts at Lennoxtown. Reports indicate the Nigerian international is currently training independently in his home country while evaluating his career options.
Despite his desire to remain at Parkhead following a successful title-winning campaign, formal discussions over a new agreement have yet to take place. Manager Martin O’Neill has expressed an interest in retaining the striker, but the lack of progress has created significant instability. Now operating as a free agent, the former Manchester City and Leicester City player has attracted lucrative proposals from several Turkish clubs looking to sign him.
