Nigeria international forward Kelechi Iheanacho has completed a transfer to Turkish club Bursaspor. Multiple reports say Iheanacho rejected a new contract offer from Scottish champions Celtic, with his existing extension clause expiring in June. Following the contract decision, the former Leicester City and Manchester City player signs with Bursaspor and is expected to join the Turkish side for the next season.
The outlets report that the move is confirmed by Bursaspor after Iheanacho turns down the option to remain at Celtic. Both sources frame the transfer as resulting from the failed contract extension and the end of the relevant clause timeframe. The reports do not add details on transfer fees or contract length, but they agree on the key sequence: contract at Celtic does not continue, and Iheanacho subsequently signs for Bursaspor in Turkey.
