Kelechi Iheanacho’s agent Roger Wittman has dismissed reports linking the Nigeria international with a move to Egyptian giants Al Ahly, insisting no contact has been made regarding a transfer.
Iheanacho joined Sevilla on a free transfer last summer, but has struggled badly for form and playing time at the La Liga club.
Softfootball gathers that the 28-year-old has failed to register a single goal or assist in nine league appearances so far this season.
Wittman was direct in shutting down the speculation while speaking to AS. He said:
No one from Egypt has contacted us to talk about the footballer, so therefore the news that there are completely false.
Despite the denial, Iheanacho has continued to be linked with a January exit from Sevilla, given his lack of impact in Spain.
Whether another suitor emerges before the window closes remains to be seen, but for now, a move to Al Ahly appears to be nothing more than speculation without any real substance behind it.
