Nigerian professional footballer, Odion Ighalo, has revealed that English club, Manchester United, is yet to offer him any deal extending his stay at the club beyond his current loan spell.
According to the 30-year-old striker who is on loan from Shanghai Greenland Shenhua of the Chinese Super League, there is “no offer on the table yet.”
Ighalo made an encouraging start to life at United following his surprise move from China with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hinting that hecould stay at the club beyond his current loan spell.
Ighalo has scored four goals in eight matches for United.
“There is no offer on the table yet,” he told Elegbete TV.
“Because the season is still on and I’m yet to finish my loan deal. I don’t just take decisions alone in my life. I have a principle and I have a guideline for everything I do. I always pray to God to direct me.”
According to Sky Sports News, last month Ighalo was offered a two-year contract extension by parent club Shanghai worth £400,000 a week.
Ighalo’s current contract expires in December 2022, but Shanghai want to keep him until at least December 2024.
“I have seen so many tweets about this. I have seen so many people going crazy, [saying] ‘go back to China’, some say stay with Man United,” he added.
