Patson Daka Becomes Third African to Reach 20+ Goals for Leicester City
Chipolopolo forward Patson Daka has etched his name in the annals of Leicester City’s history, joining the elite ranks as the third African player to achieve the milestone of scoring 20+ goals for the club. Daka’s remarkable feat places him alongside Nigerian striker Kelechi Iheanacho and Algerian winger Riyad Mahrez, both iconic figures in Leicester City’s storied past.
Daka’s achievement is a testament to his skill, talent, and prolific goal-scoring ability. His milestone of 21 goals for Leicester City adds to the rich legacy established by Iheanacho, who boasts an impressive tally of 61 goals, and Mahrez, who left an indelible mark with 48 goals during his tenure at the club. As the third African player to reach this remarkable milestone, Daka’s contribution highlights his significance in Leicester City’s scoring history.
Daka’s milestone came during Leicester City’s dominant 5-0 victory over Stoke City FC on Saturday, February 3. The Zambian forward showcased his lethal finishing prowess by notching a brace in a commanding display, further solidifying his status as a key figure in Leicester City’s attacking lineup.
Despite initially being sidelined by manager Enzo Maresca for the first 19 games of the season, Daka has swiftly made his mark since earning a spot in the starting lineup. With an impressive record of 6 goals and 3 assists in just 8 games played for Leicester City this season, Daka’s impact on the pitch has been undeniable. His ability to find the back of the net consistently has been instrumental in bolstering Leicester City’s attacking threat and securing crucial victories for the team.
As Daka continues to excel and make history with Leicester City, fans and observers alike eagerly anticipate witnessing his continued growth and success in the seasons to come. With his blend of speed, skill, and clinical finishing, Daka possesses the qualities necessary to further elevate his status and leave an enduring legacy at Leicester City. As he continues to hone his craft and contribute to the team’s success, Daka’s journey promises to be one filled with many more memorable moments and achievements.
