Kelechi Iheanacho's remarkable season with Celtic has culminated in a Scottish Premiership title, a triumph he describes with palpable emotion as a "crazy" journey that "should be on a documentary." As a Nigerian, Iheanacho's perspective on this victory offers a unique insight into the highs and lows of a title race that captivated fans and players alike. His contribution, marked by four game-deciding goals, underscores his pivotal role in Celtic's success.

“

I am happy, I am so happy. It was unbelievable, and at some point, everyone thought we had lost it, but god of soccer was on our side, and we fought to the end and won it. I can’t even express how it feels.

From a Nigerian standpoint, watching Iheanacho excel on the European stage, especially in a high-pressure environment like the Scottish Premiership, is a source of immense pride. His ability to deliver crucial goals, whether a composed penalty under immense pressure or a decisive strike in a tight match, showcases the talent and resilience that Nigerian footballers consistently bring to the global game. He speaks of his heartbeat racing during the penalty against Motherwell, a moment that perfectly encapsulates the drama and intensity of a title run-in.

It is so up there, it is very much up there. This season has been a crazy, crazy season. It should be on a documentary, and at the end, God crowned us with victory, so I am so happy.

It is so special, this trophy is so special. I don’t know how many trophies Celtic have won over the years. I know it’s a lot, but this one should be called a ‘drama trophy’, it’s a crazy trophy, and I am really happy.
