The former Watford striker is currently on the books at Shanghai Shenhua, but the start of the Chinese Super League has been suspended amid a developing coronavirus crisis in China. The Mirror claim Ighalo is on his way back to Europe and is keen to secure a last-minute transfer. United have been on the hunt for a frontman this month after failing to replace Romelu Lukaku during the summer. Marcus Rashford is currently out injured and Ighalo has continued to score goals while in China, grabbing ten in 19 appearances for Shanghai Shenhua.
