Kelechi Iheanacho will get even better now the “unfair criticism” has stopped. , his Leicester City and Nigeria teammate Wilfred Ndidi has said.
“Kelechi’s talent was never in doubt, but people love to criticise others when they are down,” Ndidi told BBC Sport Africa.
“He was unfairly criticised and judged by different people. This is someone I have known from our youth days at the U-17 and I know his quality, so it’s not a fluke that he is producing his best football again. “I am very happy for him because he’s doing wonderfully well now and everyone can see.
“It’s just sad that when he needed encouragement in the past few years many were quick to write him off, but thankfully some of these people have now turned around to praise him. That’s life.”
