The Nigeria international\u2019s contract with Enzo Maresca\u2019s side will expire at the end of June.<\/p>\n
The Foxes are unlikely to offer the forward a new contract.<\/p>\n
The 27-year-old has struggled for game time since returning from the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.<\/p>\n

Trabzonspor are one of the teams for him, and these sorts of options might have to become very real, even though it seems to be early in his career,\u201d football transfer correspondent Dean Jones.<\/p>\n
\u201cFrom a Leicester point of view, keeping him doesn\u2019t seem a wise move as he is one of the higher earners in that side, and he has only started ten games in a season when they are going for a Championship promotion.\u201d<\/p>\n
