Southampton are one of many clubs interested in signing Manchester City striker Kelechi Iheanacho this summer, but it is West Ham who have made the first move in the race to sign him, according to Sky Sports.

The Nigerian striker has been starved of consistent first team opportunities this season under Pep Guardiola, with striking duo Sergio Aguero and Gabriel Jesus ahead of him in the pecking order. City are blessed with exceptional quality up front and through no fault of his own, Iheanacho is struggling to get a look-in.
This has led to speculation surrounding his future, with it being claimed that it will take a somewhat lowly fee of £20m to lure him away from the Etihad Stadium this summer.
Saints have been credited with interest by the player himself’s agent, but it seems as though the Hammers are the side most keen to bring the young forward to the London Stadium this summer.
