His current contract at Shanghai will expire in December 2022 and now the Chinese club have offered him another two-year deal.

The 30-year-old's loan in England expires on May 31 but it is likely to be extended until June 30 because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The new deal would see Ighalo earn £400,000 a week before tax, which is said to have flattered the striker.

Ighalo has always said it has been a dream playing for United, the club he supported as a boy.
