KELECHI IHEANACHO plundered 19 goals in the season of his life at Leicester City.

- BY RYAN McDONALD

And the Celtic hitman is convinced he can do even better under miracle-worker Brendan Rodgers.

Theanacho was at the peak of his powers in 2020/21 as he helped fire the Foxes to FA Cup glory - then bagged the winning penalty to stun Manchester City in the Community Shield.

It was one of the most famous campaigns in the former Premier League champions history.

And after being reunited with Rodgers at Parkhead, Iheanacho is confident he can recapture the form that once made him a £25million star.

He said: "I think it was the best season I've had in my career. We won the cup and we won the Community Shield. It was really good, I loved it.

“Hopefully that kind of thing can happen again, maybe here in Celtic, you never know.
