SUPER Eagles forward, Kelechi Iheanacho is already
gearing up for another Manchester derby after Manchester City were drawn
against Manchester United in the EFL Cup fourth round.
The Nigerian international was in action on Wednesday
night as the Pep Guardiola side edged out Swansea City 2-1 at the Liberty
Stadium, while United ended a three-match losing streak by beating Northampton
Town 3-1 to set up the derby.
The Nigerian youngster had a memorable show in the first
Manchester derby of the season played at Old Trafford where he scored a goal
and also provided an assist as City secured a 1-2 win over their rivals in the
Premier League.
The 19 year old is now looking forward to another
explosive encounter as City visit Old Trafford on Wednesday, Oct. 26 at 8pm.
“Up to the next round it's #manchesterderby again #MCFC,”
he said on his Instagram account on Thursday.
The former Nigeria under-17 star who scored his 10th
Premier League goal against Bournemouth at the Etihad Stadium as the Citizens
romped to a 4-0 victory last Saturday, will be hoping to increase his tally as
the team returns to the Liberty Stadium where they take on Swansea City on
Saturday.
