The ex-Nigeria striker’s fairytale stay with the Red Devils isn’t going to plan, and things may not improve much in the 2020-21 season

The striker made little secret of his love for the Red Devils—an authentic love, underpinned by years of dedication and affection for the Manchester heavyweights.
A dream had come true, and despite his advancing years, the forward appeared primed to take the opportunity to leave a lasting mark on English football, having gone out with a whimper during his previous stint with Watford.
