SHANGHAI SHENHUA may have scuppered Manchester United’s transfer plans by offering Odion Ighalo a staggering £400,000-a-week contract, according to reports.
The 30-year-old has been an instant hit at Old Trafford since his January loan switch from the Chinese Super League side.
Ighalo has scored four goals in his first three starts at the Reds to set up a permanent summer switch to his dream club.
But Sky Sports reveal how his parent club have rewarded him with an eye-boggling wage packet to ensure he commits his future in China.
The Nigerian international was already lining his pockets with a hefty £300,000-a-week contract before joining Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side.
It is understood he then took a 40 per cent pay-cut to seal his switch back to the Premier League.
A number of incentives were added into the deal by United including an £8,000 goal bonuses.
