Ighalo Reacts To Stoke City, West Ham, Southampton & Everton Link

Ex-Watford star Odion Ighalo has played down speculation linking him with at least four clubs in the English Premier League.

According to reports, Stoke City, West Ham, Southampton and Everton are interested in the services of the Nigeria international, ahead of the reopening of the transfer window in the first week of January.

It is known that Ighalo's camp has very close links with West Ham and had offered another Super Eagles striker Isaac Success to the Hammers in the summer but a transfer did not materialize.

Reacting to the transfer news, Ighalo told allnigeriasoccer.com : ''It is rumours for now, but if offers come I will study them and if it's okay by me, why not?''

The Udinese product spent two and a half years at Watford, scoring 40 goals (10 assists) in 100 matches across all competitions.

Ighalo had held the transfer fee record for a Nigerian player when he joined Chinese Super League club Changchun Yatai for a fee of 23.3 million euros in January 2017.
