Kelechi Iheanacho Transfer from Celtic to Bursaspor
Kelechi Iheanacho signed a three-year deal with Turkish second-tier side Bursaspor after rejecting an offer from Celtic. Several outlets reported that Iheanacho was seeking a package of almost £50,000 per week, which is beyond Celtic's top earners. Celtic offered him a two-year contract after the automatic one-year extension option was allowed to expire at the end of June. It is claimed that a deal had initially been agreed for Iheanacho to remain at Celtic, worth £12,000 per week and rising to £17,000 per week with add-ons, before a contract was officially signed. It is alleged that Iheanacho's agent stopped responding to phone calls or emails, before returning to negotiations to demand a contract worth £47,000 per week. Less than 48 hours later, Iheanacho signed for Bursaspor on a three-year deal that was apparently worth £47,000 per week.
