Former Nigeria international, Garba Lawal, has urged Kelechi Iheanacho to be consistent in scoring goals for Leicester City when the 2019-20 season gets underway.
The 22-year-old delivered largely underwhelming performances last term, with just two goals in 35 appearances across all competitions for the Foxes but he has been impressive in the pre-season, with three goals in two games for the Premier League side.
Speaking about him, former Roda winger, Lawal believes pre-season is not a yardstick to measure the performance of any player and wants the former Manchester City striker to replicate the form when the new season commences.
“I think he has to prepare well for the new season. Pre-season cannot show what a player is capable of doing until the season starts. The season is long, he needs to take his chances and be consistent,” Lawal told Goal.
“As a striker, your responsibility is scoring goals, it does not matter if you play badly what is important is scoring. He was scoring very well in Manchester City. He has to play the same way for Leicester City,” he added.
