The manager highlighted Iheanacho’s potential contribution, adding, “We have got some good attacking players. We’ll have a good week’s training and settle everyone down again before we go again.”

Iheanacho, who previously played for Manchester City and Leicester City, is making his return to English football.

The Nigeria international is expected to make his debut for Middlesbrough against Sheffield United at Bramall Lane on Wednesday, February 12.
