Watford Striker Ighalo Picks Ronaldo de Lima, Samuel Etoo As Favourite Players
Published: September 17, 2015
In a question and answer session with Watford fans ahead of their Premier League match against Newcastle United, Odion Ighalo has revealed that his favourite footballers of all time are Ronaldo de Lima and Samuel Eto’o.
The Nigeria international also disclosed that he would have been a lawyer if had not picked up the trade as a footballer, adding that he would have gone to the university.
The 26 - year - old has netted 22 goals in 40 appearances since moving to England from Udinese but he has picked his 65th minute strike in the Hornets 2 - 0 win over Middlesbrough as the most eye-catching goal he scored last season.
To preserve their Premier League status, Watford were very active in the summer transfer market with the signing of at least 10 players but Ighalo has insisted that the club have made good signings though he refused to pick the best of the bunch.
Odion Ighalo was rewarded with a new multi - year contract by the Hornets suit last week.
