By Johnny Edward: Leicester City manager Claude Puel has assured Nigeria forwards Kelechi Iheanacho and Ahmed Musa that they will get their chances in the starting line-up with the Foxes soon.
Puel admits Iheanacho is facing a lot of competition for a starting spot, but is quick to add that the 21-year-old must be ready to seize the opportunity when it comes.
Iheanacho, who has made nine appearances (two starts and seven substitute appearances) for the club this season, has struggled to break into the Leicester City side following his £25 million move from Manchester City in the summer.
Musa has been totally frozen out, restricted to cup games and U-23 fixtures.
“He (Iheanacho) is a good player but he must improve when he finds his place in the squad,” said Puel during his pre-match interview.
“We have a lot of players in this position. It is good competition between them, perhaps a little more because for one or two positions we have six possibilities.
