Premier League sides Nottingham Forest and Ipswich Town are vying to sign Nigerian striker, Kelechi Iheanacho.

Iheanacho is currently a free agent after leaving Leicester City at the end of June.

The 27-year-old forward has been linked with a move to Aston Villa and several Turkish clubs, but no concrete offers have emerged.

According to Football Insider, Nottingham Forest and Ipswich Town have now entered the race for Iheanacho’s signature.

Both clubs are expected to make formal contract proposals in the coming days.

Iheanacho spent seven years with Leicester City, made 232 appearances and scored 61 goals for the Foxes.
