Ighalo’s Top Priority For Man United (Read Details)
Posted by E.L.E.X on May 02 2020 under Sports
Manchester United fully intend to sign Odion Ighalo this summer and have made the Nigerian loanee their No 1 priority when it comes to recruiting a new striker, claims a transfer expert.
Ighalo, who moved to United on loan from Shanghai Greenland Shenhua on deadline day in January, has hit the ground running with four goals in eight appearances.
Indeed, the Nigerian’s strikes helped the Red Devils progress in the Europa League and FA Cup before the season was brought to a halt last month.
And while the 30-year-old has released an interview stating his happiness with life at Old Trafford, it’s been claimed he could reject the deal due to a combination of reasons, with one report even citing that a lack of appreciation at Old Trafford could see him join a direct rival.
However, were the former Watford man to secure a permanent return to the Premier League, it is only likely going to be at Old Trafford.
And while his signing remains a signing for United that of course after they’ve spent a vast fortune on Jadon Sancho, whose character has been assassinated on Wednesday there remains something of an issue in their hopes of making Ighalo’s stay more permanent.
“Manchester United have been very impressed and pleased with the progress that Mason Greenwood has made this season.”
“But they do remain in the market for a striker, and the one that they want is a player that is already in their squad, Odion Ighalo on loan from Shanghai Shenhua of course.
“Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is very impressed with the impact that Ighalo has made this season and sees Ighalo as a man of experience who can help some younger players, including Mason Greenwood.”
“However, this deal is not as easy as it sounds.
That’s because Shanghai Shenhua have offered Ighalo a new contract worth around £400,000-a-week. That’s simply a wage that Manchester United would not pay,” Sky Sports reporter, Dharmesh Sheth.
