Shanghai Shenhuahave demanded a huge price from Manchester United if they want to sign Odion Ighalo on permanent basis after his loan spell in six months time.

The Red Devils have been told to pay £15million to secure the permanent transfer of loanee Ighalo.

Ighalo has impressed since his arrival from China and the manchester United board are considering sealing a move for the former Watford attacker.

Shanghai Shenhua only paid £5.27m for the 30-year-old Nigeria international when he left CC Yatai in February last year but are now set to demand almost three times that fee in order for United to sign him.

He has scored four goals in eight games for the Red Devils including the beautiful goal against LASK in the Eropa League and his performance has not gone unoticed with his club Shanghai Shenhu and they feel the their asking for the former Udinese attacker is commesurate with his level.
