Leicester City forward, Kelechi Iheanacho, has been named the Premier League Player of the Month for March.

He joins Jay-Jay Okocha, Peter Odemwingie and Odion Ighalo as the fourth Nigerian player to win the monthly prize.

Iheanacho netted five goals in three matches in the month under review.

It is also the first individual honour the Super Eagles forward clinched in the English top-flight since he made his debut appearance against Watford in August 2015.

Iheanacho saw off competition from Manchester City’s Algerian star Riyad Mahrez, Tottenham Hotspur’s Harry Kane, West Ham United’s Jesse Lingard, Leeds United’s Illan Meslier, Manchester United’s Luke Shaw, Brighton & Hove Albion’s Leandro Trossard and Chelsea’s Andreas Christensen.
