According to Hargreaves, and indeed many football fans, Ighalo has done well during his six months loan spell that was abruptly cut short by the COVID-19.

Ighalo joined United on a six-month loan deal from Chinese Super League outfit, Shanghai Shenhua, in January.

The 30-year-old has scored four goals in eight appearances for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men in what could be described as an outstanding performance.

Ighalo’s loan deal at United expires at the end of the month of May, this could see the former Watford player return back to China.

Although they have been speculations that he could sign a permanent deal, the chances of that is bleak especially with Rashford back from injury.

Shenhua is reportedly ready to let Ighalo join United for £20m and Hargreaves expects United to sign a permanent deal with Ighalo.

Hargreaves told talkSPORT, “I think he’s been a good fit for Man United and when you sign players you’ve got to get the right fit.

“It’s not always about getting the best name, it’s about getting the guy that you don’t have that you need.

“He was somebody that whoever signed him hats off to you, because he’s given them something different.

“Hopefully he stays but there’s the whole Sanchez situation when he comes back, Martial and Rashford, he’s fit as well, Bruno [Fernandes] and [Paul] Pogba – you’ve got to get them all into a team, with Daniel James as well.

“So he’s been good, really good. I’m sure they’ll try, if it’s sensible, keep him longer. I’d be surprised if he left,” he added.
