Paris Saint-Germain are “confident” of signing Manchester City striker Kelechi Iheanacho, according to allnigeriasoccer.com.

It has been reported that the Nigerian international is subject to a bidĀ from West Ham but it seems the Hammers will have a battle on their hands if they want to sign the 20 year old this summer.

PSG are said to be seeking young talent to add to their ranks and Iheanacho has already demonstrated his capabilities in the Premier League with his 21 goals in 64 appearances for City.

The decision will likely come down to whether the forward is seeking more game time or a larger contract. If he opts to move to West Ham, depending on whether his club accept the Hammers’ bid, he will most likely be the club’s top striker.

In France, he will almost certainly be given a better contract but it is not certain where he will figure in the club’s first team plans. 49 goal striker Edinson Cavani will remainĀ the side’s first choice up front, and Iheanacho may struggle for minutes on the field if he makes the switch to Paris.
