Manchester United move is a dream come true - Ighalo

Odion Ighalo has expressed his delight after sealing a switch to Manchester United on loan from Shanghai Shenhua, insisting his lifelong dream has become a reality.

Ighalo has joined the Red Devils on a temporary deal set to run until the end of the season, after a dramatic January deadline day which finally saw Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's search for a new striker come to an end.

It was widely reported that United failed with a £20 million ($26m) bid for Bournemouth's Josh King on Friday, before turning their attention to a 30-year-old who has spent the last three years of his career in China.
