Leicester is in the Championship this season. The team is flying high at the top of the table, with 10 wins from 11 games. The team is looking good, with its internationals staying on despite relegation.
This creates an alternating attack between Jamy Vardy, Patson Daka and Kelechi Iheanacho. Indeed, coach Enzo Maresca is rotating his attack a lot. But when asked about possible competition with Vardy, Iheanacho, who has started 5 games while Vardy has started 6, was keen to clarify matters. Let me make it clear, it's never a battle between me and Jamie, he's a legend in the game, he's done a lot for this great club, so it's never a battle between me and Jamie. I have absolute respect for him, he's a legend as I said before, so it's never a battle. If he plays, he scores, you know what he's like. So, if I play, I do my part. Me, Jamie, Patson (Daka), it's never a battle, we're happy with where we are right now." Jamie and Iheanacho each have 4 goals to their name.
