<h4><em><span style="color:#571111;">&#8216;Kelechi Iheanacho&#8217; </span></em><br />
<span style="color:#571111;">Better minute-to-goal ratio than Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez&#8230; the Manchester City forward is Europe&#8217;s deadliest player<br />
<em>&#8230;how so?<br />
<span style="color:#520808;">The <strong> 19-year-old&#8217;s 11 goals have come at an average of every 81.27 minutes</strong> compared to </span><span style="color:#183e73;"><strong><span style="color:#520808;">Luis Suarez is 83.77, Cristiano Ronaldo 84.21</span><br />
</strong><br />
</span></em></span>Who is the hottest young striker in Manchester. Marcus Rashford of United or City&#8217;s Kelechi Iheanacho?<br />
Depends on who you ask. Rashford has been influential in bringing United out of their slide their season with his goalscoring exploits, seven goals in 14 appearances since making his debut in February. In Iheanacho, Manchester City can probably boast of a more devastating young finisher</h4>

<div class="article-text wide">Kelechi Iheanaco One Minute &#8211; One Goal &#8211; The Nigeria youngster came on in the 89th minute in place of Wilfried Bony as Manchester City looked destined to finish goalless against Crystal Palace.

<p>The 19-year-old is quietly blossoming into a clinical finisher at City, and this was highlighted by his two goals in their 4-0 Premier League win over Stoke on Saturday.<br />
That double took his overall tally to 11 in the season and a stat that sees him crowned as Europe&#8217;s deadliest marksman.<br />
Iheanacho can lay claim to being the most prolific goalscorer in Europe&#8217;s top five league based on minutes played.<br />
His minute-to-goal ratio stands at 81.27 &#8211; a figure that surpasses illustrious forwards such Lionel Messi, Robert Lewandowski and Cristiano Ronaldo.<br />
Based on players having scored 10 goals or more this term in all competitions, Iheanacho&#8217;s nearest challenger is Barcelona forward Luis Suarez. The 29-year-old has scored 53 times at a minute-to-goal ratio of 83.77.<br />
Real Madrid duo Ronaldo (47 goals) and Karim Benzema (27) sit third and fourth respectively in this list at 84.21 and 85.93 respectively.</p>

&#8216;I think I should dream about that because it&#8217;s a great team to dream about,&#8217; he said. &#8216;It would be a dream come true to play against them.<br />
&#8216;Ronaldo and Messi are the greatest players on the planet so I think playing against them is a big thing to anyone. It would be a big thing to me if I play against him on Tuesday.&#8217;<br />
&#8216;(If I was picked) I would feel very great, I would feel very happy. I would grab the opportunity and really work hard.&#8217;<br />
If the young Nigerian does feature on Tuesday then Real&#8217;s defence have been warned.</p>
