Odion Ighalo has written a parting message to Manchester United fans as his one-year loan deal with the club comes to an end, Sportsbiz247.blogspot.com reports.

The Nigeria international is currently on loan with United from Chinese Super League side Shanghai Shenhua, but that loan is scheduled to expire on January 31, at which point the 31-year-old Nigerian could in line for a change in scenery.


The former Super Eagles striker has only made four appearances this term and he is gutted that his journey will not be continuing at Old Trafford.


"It’s so hard to see this dream come to an end," Ighalo wrote. "But I give God the glory for helping me fulfill this life long dream of putting on a Manchester United shirt as a player and represent this great club, it was indeed an honor I will forever cherish and be grateful for.

"To the manager I say thank you for trusting and believing in me when many did not, to my amazing team mates I will miss you guys , it was always fun and a time I look forward to training and spending time with all of you . And I pray we win the LEAGUE and FA cup this year.

"To the best fans in the world (the Manchester United fans) we have missed you, but we hear your voices cheering us on from afar, we can’t wait to have you all back on the stands.

"I’m still and would remain a MANCHESTER UNITED FAN forever. Once a Red, always a Red.

"Thank you @manchesterunited and God bless."
