Leicester City manager Rodgers hails Iheanacho’s partnership with Vardy

Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers has praised the productive partnership between Kelechi Iheanacho and Jamie Vardy.

The Super Eagles forward was previously an understudy to the 2019-20 Premier League Golden Boot winner before his recent combination with the star-forward owing to injuries suffered by James Maddison and Harvey Barnes.

The 24-year-old has bagged seven goals in his last four games across all competitions since playing alongside the England international, including his second career hat-trick against Sheffield United.
