SAN FRANCISCO, May 27, (THEWILL) – Nigerian international, Moses Simon, says fellow international teammate, Odion Igholo deserves to remain in Manchester United permanently following his sensational performance at the club since he arrived on loan from China.
Odion is due back in China this week when his loan deal ends because his Chinese Club and United have been unable to work out an extension.
However, Simon in an interview with Tribalfootball said a permanent deal United move will be good for the player and Nigeria.
“If the Manchester United deal can be sealed permanently, not just a loan deal, I think it will be good for his football, his family and for Nigerian football. Odion Ighalo has proved to be a good striker in Man Utd in the few games he played.
