'He's doing well now but in two or three years...': Manchester United loanee Odion Ighalo tips 'young and exciting' Mason Greenwood for a huge future at Old Trafford

Odion Ighalo has been hugely impressed by Manchester United starlet Mason Greenwood since arriving at Old Trafford, tipping the teen for big things.

Ighalo landed in England on-loan from Chinese side Shanghai Shenhua in January and has helped out as an experienced head to turn the youthful United side's patchy form into an impressive run of form.

One of the main beneficiaries of Solskjaer's faith in youth has been 18-year-old academy graduate Greenwood, who has enjoyed a breakout season with 36 first-team appearances, contributing 12 goals.
