Odion Ighalo is attracting interest from China and it is understood that a couple of Super League teams are weighing up a move for the Watford striker in the January transfer window.

But with the Hornets yet to put their asking price on the Nigeria star, the suitors from the Far East have not backed up their interest by making an official bid for his services.

“Ighalo is on the wishlist of some teams in China but no offer has been made, Watford have not told us how much they want to sell him, ” a source close to Odion Ighalo told allnigeriasoccer.com.

“I don’t know if he’s leaving Watford this month, if the right offer comes he will move.

“He has done very well in the Premier League and has nothing to prove again. ”

Last August, Ighalo, 27, penned a new deal that will keep him at The Vic until the summer of 2021.
