The Manchester United striker has hit the ground running at Manchester United, and has enjoyed a career comparable to some of Nigeria's PL greats
More than perhaps any other African nation, there is a proud history of Nigerian strikers in the Premier League.
The newest off that line is Odion Ighalo, whose impact since joining Manchester United in January has been just as improbable as the Red Devils’ decision to bring him on loan from Shanghai Shenhua in the Chinese Super League.
His involvement in the league has been sparing, but in the cup competitions, the former Nigeria international has demonstrated impressive predatory instinct, scoring four times in four appearances, while providing one assist.
