Manchester United Transfer News: Odion Ighalo Talks Red Devils Move Amid Rumours

Watford's in-form striker Odion Ighalo says he would be tempted to leave the Hornets for Manchester United amid rumours of interest from Atletico Madrid and Roma.

The Nigerian has been in flying form in his first Premier League season and has netted 14 goals in 20 appearances, per WhoScored.com.

Unsurprisingly, the forward has attracted reported interest from a variety of top European clubs, but he has indicated that he will only move away from Vicarage Road should the Red Devils come knocking, per Tony Little in the Sun:

"

There has been speculation from Spain and Italy but I've played there and now want to play in England. 

I don’t think I will be moving but I'm not sure I’d say no if United called. 

They were my team growing up. I loved watching Andy Cole and Dwight Yorke on TV. 

They were my idols and playing at Old Trafford has always been a dream.

"

Ighalo could potentially be a decent signing for United in January given their struggles in front of goal this season.

Per WhoScored, their front-line strikers, Wayne Rooney and Anthony Martial, have netted only eight times between them in the league.

Bleacher Report's Sam Tighe believes United need to make a couple of key signings if they are to compete for the title in 2015-16, and a predatory striker like Ighalo could be a very useful addition to Louis van Gaal's squad.

However, Watford would be loath to let him go, and it would be something of a risk for United to sign the 26-year-old on the back of just half a good season in the Premier League.

Equally, his contract with Watford runs until June 2020, meaning the Red Devils would have to shell out a significant sum to snap him up.

Elsewhere, Adnan Januzaj looks set to return early from his season-long loan spell with Borussia Dortmund due to a lack of playing time, per the Times' James Ducker:

The 20-year-old Belgian has played only 160 minutes of Bundesliga football this season in six substitute appearances, and United clearly see little benefit in leaving him to warm the bench at the Westfalenstadion, per WhoScored.

A fan favourite at Old Trafford, Januzaj's return will give Van Gaal added options in attack as he can play him through the middle or on either flank.

But Januzaj will need to prove that he is worthy of a first-team place, as his progression has been slow since he first broke onto the scene at Old Trafford under David Moyes in the 2013-14 season.
