Kelechi Iheanacho Faces Registration Issues Ahead of Sevilla’s La Liga Opener

Super Eagles striker Kelechi Iheanacho may miss Sevilla’s La Liga opener against Las Palmas on Friday due to unresolved registration issues, MySportDab Reports.

The Nigerian forward, who joined Sevilla this summer on a free transfer from Leicester City, is facing delays in making his competitive debut for the Andalusian club.

Despite securing Iheanacho’s services, Sevilla is currently grappling with La Liga’s stringent financial regulations, which have complicated the registration process.

As of now, Sevilla has only one available slot for player registration, but they have two unregistered players: Iheanacho and Lucien Agoume. With the club’s immediate need to strengthen their midfield, Agoume is likely to be prioritized for registration.

To accommodate both Iheanacho and Agoume, Sevilla would need to offload a player to comply with La Liga’s financial rules.

However, with just two days remaining before their season opener, the club is running out of time to finalize these moves, raising concerns about Iheanacho’s availability for the match.

Iheanacho recently made an unofficial debut for Sevilla in a pre-season friendly against Liverpool, where he showcased his potential despite the team’s 4-1 defeat.

His performance hinted at the impact he could have in La Liga, but his official debut now hangs in the balance due to these registration hurdles.

Sevilla is expected to work diligently to resolve these issues before the transfer window closes at the end of the month, aiming to ensure that all their players, including Iheanacho, are registered in time for the season.

As the clock ticks down, fans and the club alike are hopeful that the situation will be resolved swiftly, allowing Iheanacho to contribute to Sevilla’s campaign in La Liga.
