Sevilla sporting director, Victor Orta has admitted that bringing in Kelechi Iheanacho was a poor decision.
Iheanacho joined the LaLiga side on a free transfer last summer but has failed to make any meaningful impact.
The Nigerian forward didn’t register a goal or assist in nine league appearances before being loaned to English Championship club Middlesbrough in January.
“I want to clarify that the first two strikers were brought in as complements, to be practically the third striker, because there was a starter like Youssef and a striker who later appeared, like Isaac,” Orta told Futbol Fantasy.
“But it’s clear that betting on Kelechi this season has been a mistake, and we will analyze why we made it—and we are doing so now.”
