Manchester United Extends Odion Ighalo's Loan Deal

Odion Ighalo was a last-second addition to Manchester United's squad prior to the closing of the January transfer window. And at the last second before his loan to the club expired, Man United ensured that its pleasant surprise would stick around a little longer.

Man United extended Igahlo's short-term loan, with the league suspension caused by the coronavirus pandemic threatening to force him away from the team before the season was able to be completed. Ighalo's initial loan from Chinese club Shanghai Shenhua was due to expire on May 31, but the two clubs agreed to extend his stay until January 31, 2021.
