Nigerian international Kelechi Iheanacho has completed his move to Middlesbrough in the Sky Bet Championship.

The 28-year-old joined the club on a six-month loan deal for the remainder of the season.

The Teessiders are expected to pay a higher percentage of Iheanacho’s wage.

The Super Eagles star endured a difficult start at Sevilla since joining the club as a free agent in the summer.

Iheanacho managed just 11 appearances across all competitions for the Rojiblancos, scoring three goals.

Iheanacho played in the Championship last season, where he helped Leicester City win the second-tier English league and secure qualification to the Premiership.
