Fans of Premier League side, West Ham, are in shock over their club’s decision to pull out on a potential deal for Nigeria forward, Kelechi Iheanacho.
The Hammers reportedly opted out of the race to sign the Manchester City striker this summer, giving Leicester City the impetus to close in on a deal.
Iheanacho was heavily linked with a move to the London Stadium over the last number of weeks, with the club in dire need of attacking recruits before next season.
But shockingly, boss Slaven Bilic watered down his interest in the Nigerian, which has left West Ham fans disgusted.
@Bilic Iheanacho is bettah than Gray

Bilic is a bloody idiot if he rejected Iheanacho just because he’s inexperienced

Bilic must be pretty confident in us signing Giroud then if he doesnt want Iheanacho as he thinks hes “unproven”
Lets hope that is the case

I stress again. We had Zaza and Calleri and a china doll in AC and a male Mariah Carey in Sakho and Bilic doesn’t rate iheanacho l?? #coyi

If Bilic has said no to Iheanacho without having somone better/equal close to joining West Ham then I’m afraid he’s lost it #WHUFC #COYI

We are shambles. Not because we didn’t sign Iheanacho, but because the board and Sully’s teenage son threw Slav under the bus for it. #COYI
