Looks like the dream continues for Ighalo, what a story..A very inspiring one. If he eventually returns to shensua, he’d return a fulfilled man. And an accomplished dreamer..!.

I’m happy to see Ighalo stay until January. It will help the younger lads out. If we do correct business with additions to other areas this coming window we can wait now until next January or next summer to sign a striker long term for the squad. #Ighalo #MUFC

I’m happy with Ighalo extending, he’s done well since he’s come in. But for me, @masongreenwood should be starting every game now, he is really special and has proved already that he is ready #mufc #ighalo #Greenwood
