Leicester City striker Kelechi Iheanacho has been linked with a surprise move across the East Midlands to Nottingham Forest this summer, as City’s rebuild sees players arriving and leaving. The striker returned to training at Seagrave on Friday, after having an extra few days off following his involvement in Nigeria’s international games in June.
