The versatile forward missed Leicester Citys 2-0 win at Cardiff City on Friday night.

The Foxes manager, Enzo Maresca that Iheanacho is nursing a muscle injury.

The former Manchester City star sustained the injury in Leicester Citys 1-1 draw with Ipswich Town on Boxing Day.

Maresca confirmed that Iheanacho wont travel to Cote dIvoire if the injury is serious.

Kelechi has a muscle problem two days ago, Maresca was quoted by Leicester Mercury.

We are still waiting to see if its something important or a matter of days. But I dont think he will be able for the next one (against Huddersfield).

We dont know yet (if it will affect his Afcon call-up). It depends on the injury. If its an important injury, he has no chance to go. If its not important, he can go.
