Cote D’Ivoire soccer Icon Yaya Toure has praised Kelechi Iheanacho, Nigerian striker and his team mate at Manchester City, for his performance as well as his ability to listen to advice.

Both players scored goals in their club’s victory over Hull City at the KCOM Stadium on Boxing Day.

In an interview with Daily Star, Toure said Iheanacho would go places.

“When you’re young like that you have to show your hunger,” he told the publication.

“What I tell him all the time, even on the training ground, when you play like that you have to show up, and I think Hull was brilliant for him.”

Since his debut for City in 2015, Iheanacho has scored 12 goals in 38 games.
