FUT 21 POTM Premier League, where the player of the month is chosen each month for outstanding performances, had a surprise pick this month: Kelechi Iheanacho.

Kelechi Iheanacho's March Performance;

• Burnley 1 - 1 Leicester: 1 goal
• Brighton 1 - 2 Leicester: 1 goal
• Leicester 5 - 0 Sheffield Utd.: 3 goals

Iheanacho's Player of the Month FUT 21 Card

Starting the game with a 74-rated silver card, the player managed to upgrade his card to 80, then 83, and finally 86 through his performances during the season.

What Is Kelechi Iheanacho's FIFA 21 Special Card Like? Which Chemistry Style Should You Apply?

Looking at the card's attributes, the first thing that stands out alongside his pace is his high physical stat. In FIFA 21, where fast and strong players make a real difference, having both attributes makes us eager to add him to our team. His 4-star skill move rating and 87 dribbling also show he has a strong relationship with the ball, which suggests he can shield the ball well and set up his teammates.

I can already hear you saying that dribbling and skill moves alone aren't enough to do that, and pass quality matters too; you're absolutely right, and his 90 short passing alongside 86 vision clearly answers that question.

If you've added Iheanacho to your team and are wondering which chemistry style to apply to him; first of all, the player will arrive as untradeable, which is a good opportunity to experiment. My take is to apply a Pace-Shooting (Hunter) chemistry style to him first. The reason for this is that, with the attributes I just listed, he's already a card that can comfortably cover other requirements, and boosting his core attributes further would instantly push his pace above 95 and his shooting above 90, elevating him to elite striker level. If you feel his pace is already high enough and want to go a different route, you can also apply a Dribbling-Shooting (Finisher) chemistry style, which suits his profile very well too.
