Leicester City have had their first bid for Manchester City striker Kelechi rejected according to Owngoalnigeria.com today.

Overnight Leicester have suddenly become the bookies favourite at Evens to land the 20 year old Nigerian forward after talks with West Ham are said to have broken down over the fee that will be inserted in his buy back clause. West Ham remain second favourites to land the Man City youngster at odds of 6/4.

The Foxes are claimed to have put in a bid around the 20 million pounds mark but the report says their bid was turned down by the Etihad based outfit who are looking for a fee in the region of £24m.

Man City are yet to comment on his future but Iheanacho has been told by manager Pep Guardiola that he will only be sold if the club are able to sign a replacement.
