Iheanacho’s Six-Game Scoring Run Poses Super Eagles Selection Question for Chelle
Kelechi Iheanacho scored twice as Bursaspor came from behind to beat Manisa FK 2-1 on September 7. The result extended his league scoring streak to six matches. The Nigerian forward has reportedly produced eight goals and two assists in that run. His sharp form comes at a key time, with Super Eagles coach Eric Chelle preparing for the AFCON 2027 qualifiers and monitoring injury concerns around Victor Osimhen and Paul Onuachu. The major question is whether Iheanacho’s performances in Turkey’s second tier should earn him an immediate recall. Some fans believe his confidence and goals make him difficult to ignore, while others remain concerned about the standard of the league and his previous fitness issues.
