Watford, a club competing in the Sky Bet Championship, has proposed acquiring Super Eagles’ Kelechi Iheanacho on a short-term loan for the remainder of the current season.
Kelechi Iheanacho, who previously joined Sevilla in the summer transfer window, has not been able to make a significant impact at the Spanish club.
Despite his potential, the 28-year-old forward has struggled to find the back of the net, going goalless in nine league appearances for Sevilla.
Furthermore, ongoing concerns about his fitness levels have contributed to his lack of playing time.
Reports indicate that Sevilla is open to allowing Iheanacho to leave during this transfer window, suggesting they are exploring alternatives that may give him more playing opportunities.
Iheanacho has made a considerable mark throughout his career, scoring 61 goals and providing 34 assists in 232 matches across various competitions.
This type of record emphasizes his potential and quality as a forward, making him an appealing option for Watford as they seek to bolster their squad.
On another transfer front, Arsenal are actively engaged in discussions with the agent of Nico Williams, as they are poised to meet the release clause necessary to secure the player’s signature from Athletic Club this January.
Williams, a 22-year-old winger, has been on Arsenal’s radar for some time, particularly after his impressive performances, which helped Spain clinch the Euro 2024 title.
According to reports from Goal, Arsenal’s manager, Mikel Arteta, is determined to enhance the team’s attacking options, particularly in light of Bukayo Saka’s recent hamstring surgery, which is expected to sideline him for over two months. The club is reportedly ready to pay the €58 million release clause to facilitate the transfer process without delay.
