Ighalo could start against Club Brugge – Manchester United boss Solskjaer

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has admitted Odion Ighalo could start in the first leg Round of 32 of their Europa League game against Club Brugge on Thursday.

The former Nigeria international joined the Red Devils on a short-term loan deal from Chinese Super League side Shanghai Shenhua in January.

Ighalo was handed a cameo debut appearance in United’s Premier League victory over rivals Chelsea on Monday.

The Red Devils boss confirmed the former Watford forward could enjoy more minutes when they take on Philippe Clement’s men in Belgium.
