Guardiola accused of favouritism as Iheanacho is urged to quit Manchester City

The Nigeria international has fallen out of favour after starting the season brightly, with Sergio Aguero and Gabriel Jesus being picked ahead of him

Kelechi Iheanacho has been urged to “leave Manchester City” by his advisor after being treated unfairly by Pep Guardiola.

The Nigeria international saw regular game time during the opening months of the season and repaid that faith with four goals by mid-October.

He has, however, added just another three to that tally since after finding himself restricted to a bit-part role.

Guardiola has now been accused of favouritism after offering more minutes to Sergio Aguero and Gabriel Jesus, with Olumide Olowu calling on Iheanacho to consider his future at 20 years of age.
