Former Super Eagles midfield maestro, Mutiu Adepoju has advised Nigeria and Manchester City striker, Kelechi Iheanacho to quit the club if he confirms that he wouldn’t be in Pep Guardiola’s plans going into the new season.
Adepoju feared that the continued under-utilisation of the budding striker may undermine his career. Reacting to increasing calls for Iheanacho to quit the Manchester club, he remarked that “it largely depends on what his coach wants. If he wants him and would count on him, he should stay because Manchester City is a big club. But if he is not part of his plan, he should leave because no player wants to stay on the bench for a long period. If he is going to keep him on the bench, he should move on.”
Meanwhile, Adepoju singled out Victor Moses for commendation following the Chelsea’s winger’s contribution to the Blue’s championship winning season. He said that Moses “was outstanding and he played in almost all the matches that helped Chelsea win the league trophy. There is no doubt that he is a very good player and he actually performed wonderfully well. He gave a good account of himself and I strongly believe that he will put up a good performance with the Super Eagles.”
