According to reports from skysport, former Nigeria super eagles forward Odion Ighalo rejected Antonio Conte's Inter Milan and Jose Mourinho Tottenham to sign for Ole Gunner's Man United.

Reason is that, he has always been a Man United fan and wants to fulfill his dream of playing for them.

EPL: How Ighalo shunned Spurs, Inter Milan for Manchester United

Manchester United have agreed a deal with Shanghai Shenhua to sign striker Odion Ighalo on a six-month loan.

United are finalising the move to bring in the 30-year-old who has Premier League experience at Watford between 2014-17.

Ighalo is in pre-season training with Shenhua, but the new Chinese Super League season has been delayed due to the escalation of the coronavirus.

Tottenham also made their own late attempt to secure a loan deal for Ighalo on Deadline Day.

United earlier had a £20m bid for Bournemouth striker Joshua King rejected as the club target cover in the absence of the injured Marcus Rashford, but their pursuit of the Norway international appears to have ended.

Inter Milan also wanted to sign Ighalo, when their pursuit of Chelsea forward Olivier Giroud failed, but the Nigerian had his heart set on a move back to English football.

After the home game against Wolves on Saturday, live on Sky Sports, United have a 16-day gap before they play Chelsea in their next Premier League fixture.

Tottenham, who have explored a number of short-term options to cover for the injured Harry Kane this month, are increasingly unlikely to sign a striker but continue to explore what are now limited options.

I watched this on skysport when the host together with former man united players Mark Huges and Jaap Stam were analysing the deadline day transfer news and I was surprised.

This thread is for those insulting Man United for going for Ighalo

No more five figure strikers in the market
Every top European clubs wants to sell their striker for six figures.
Man city,Madrid and PSG don spoil market.

Wow what a way to start 2020

Welcome back to epl Ighalo

See my country men saying "yes" and "wow" now whereas they never believed the guy before

We always badmouth our own and ourselves, only when others are in agreement do we start to see reasons to also agree. Low self esteem people

Our jazzz has been a blessing to us since the time of the ogiso

And most Nigerian football fans trolled him when he said barcelona came for him o

You wan join club na dis rotten United u con join mtcheew dem go just spoil ya career for there ask lingard and mata with young

What is Ighalo going to be playing, he is off age, and over prized, I wonder what roles he going to be given, anyway I wish he all the best and congratulations to him for his new contract deals

Interesting. See big offers.

It was a good decision though. Man U have the least competitive attack of the three.

Lesson learnt it is never over until it is all over..
Igahlo for M U..?
