IGHALO TURNS DOWN YET ANOTHER HUGE CHINESE BID.


Super Eagles striker Odion Ighalo has for the second time rejected a big money offer to play in the Chinese league and as a result his club, Watford turned down another £37.5million bid from Shanghai SIPG for Odion Ighalo – because the striker does not want to go to China. The Hornets were left reeling by the massive bid for the Nigeria international – who scored 17 goals last season – with Shanghai’s ex-England boss Sven Goran Eriksson keen to land him. Last summer, he rejected a £300,000-a-week deal with Qinhuangdao-based Hebei China Fortune, and instead went on to sign a five-year deal with his Hertfordshire club. “I told them it’s not about the money, I’ll wait for God to give me directions,” Ighalo said.
