While the identity of the club Watford are negotiating with is classified information, this website can exclusively report that the Hornets number 24 is not generating interest from Shanghai Shenhua and Hebei China Fortune, contrary to various speculations in the media.
At the moment, Shanghai Shenhua have five foreigners on their payroll, including Nigeria star Obafemi Martins and Carlos Tevez, so a move to the club is out of topic.
Ighalo’s bonafide intermediary was sighted in London on Wednesday, fueling speculation that he traveled to England to hold clear the air talks with Watford suits about the striker’s future at The Vic.
A proposed move to West Brom appears to have fallen through, with the Baggies failing to meet his asking price, thought to be in the region of 17 million pounds.
