Exclusive : Nigeria Highest Paid Footballer Makes Super League Debut, Starts Against Eagles
Published: March 04, 2017
According to information gathered by allnigeriasoccer.com, Super Eagles star Odion Ighalo will definitely make his competitive debut for Changchun Yatai on Saturday afternoon.
While it is already known that the former Watford striker traveled with the Changchun Yatai squad to Shanghai, the big news is that manager Lee Jang-soo has named the Nigerian in his starting XI for the clash against the Red Eagles.
Despite starting the pre-season late, Ighalo caught the eye during the team’s training tour to South Korea, where he netted three goals.
The ex-Lyn Oslo, Granada and Udinese man will remain at Changchun Yatai until at least the end of the 2020 season.
The game between Shanghai SIPG FC and Changchun Yatai starts at 1235 hours at Shanghai Stadium.
