English Premier League, Manchester City, may not offer Nigerian youngster, Kelechi Iheanacho an improved contract if the battle between his agents continue.
Reports have it that US-based First Eleven Management, who secured Iheanacho his first City deal, have asked the Football Association arbitration to cancel a new management contract, which Iheanacho has signed with UK-based Stellar Group.
This tussle could well boil over to a civil court battle between the two high-profile agents.
“Talks over a new contract for Kelechi have been suspended until the FA arbitration decides on who his agents are. First Eleven who first managed him have asked for the FA to cancel a new management contract the player has entered with Stellar Group,” a top source informed.
“It is only after the decision by arbitration that the situation will be a lot clearer. But even then, this could go all the way to the courtroom the way things are going.”
But on the pitch, youngster Iheanacho has continued to improve his stocks after he scored in Manchester City's 3-0 spanking of Norwich City Saturday night in an FA Cup tie.
The 19-year-old striker started his second official game and scored in the 31st minute to give City a 2-0 lead.
He has now scored five goals in all competitions mostly as a substitute for Manuel Pellegrini’s side this season. Africanfootball
