Super Eagles star, Kelechi Iheanacho, and Ghanaian international, Abdul Fatawu Issahaku, were spotted performing the popular Coup du Marteauu dance inside the Leicester City bus.
Iheanacho was part of the Nigerian squad that finished second at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast, while Fatawu turned down the chance to represent Ghana at the competition to focus on club football.
The Super Eagles star was not a major member of Jose Peseiro's team at the competition, but he made his mark by scoring the last penalty that took Nigeria to the final against South Africa in the semi-final.
Despite the conclusion of the African Championship, the Nigerian international has yet to forget the tournament and has initiated some of his Leicester City teammates.
