La Liga side Las Palmas are reportedly making a push to secure Super Eagles forward Kelechi Iheanacho on loan for the remainder of the season, as they seek reinforcements to bolster their attacking options, Soccernet.ng<\/a> reports.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since Diego Mart\u00ednez\u2019s arrival, Las Palmas have seen a marked improvement in their form, climbing out of the relegation zone into a more comfortable position in the league table.<\/p>\n

However, the club\u2019s management is determined to resolve lingering squad issues by signing a reliable striker high on the agenda, and Nigeria international has been labelled a priority for the 14th-placed La Liga side.<\/p>\n

Sevilla Struggles Push Iheanacho Toward the Exit<\/h4>\n

Iheanacho joined Sevilla in the summer on a free transfer after leaving Leicester City but has struggled to find his footing under head coach Garc\u00eda Pimienta. The Super Eagles attacker has yet to make a significant impact, with limited minutes and no goals in La Liga.<\/p>\n

Sevilla are eager to restructure their squad, and are looking to offload Iheanacho<\/a> to free up space and financial resources to sign a new striker. This has opened the door for Las Palmas, who are keen to bring the 27-year-old on board.<\/p>\n

Las Palmas\u2019 Loan Offer<\/h4>\n

According to reports from Todofichajes<\/a>, Las Palmas have already approached Sevilla with a loan proposal for Iheanacho, which would see the forward move to Gran Canaria until the end of the season.<\/p>\n

While the Yellows have yet to receive a response, it is suggested to pick the interest of Sevilla for the Nigerian as they look to bolster their squad with a consistent goal poacher.<\/p>\n

This move comes after other striker targets, including his countryman Umar Sadiq, have reportedly fallen out of favour with Las Palmas\u2019 sporting director, Luis Helguera.<\/p>\n

As a result, the club has turned its attention to Iheanacho, hoping the Nigerian can provide the goals they need to maintain their steady climb up the table.<\/p>\n

A Fresh Start for Iheanacho?<\/h4>\n

For Iheanacho, a loan move to Las Palmas could offer a chance to revive his form and confidence in a new environment.<\/p>\n

With Sevilla seeking to trim their squad and Las Palmas in need of attacking reinforcements, the deal could benefit both parties.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
