DONE DEAL: Odion Ighalo leaves Al Shabab for Al Hilal

Former Manchester United and Watford striker Odion Ighalo is again on the move.

The Nigeria international has left Al Shabab and is joining fellow Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal.

The 32-year-old striker has scored 22 goals in 32 matches for Al Shabab.

Al Shabab controversially blocked Ighalo from joining Nigeria for this month's Africa Cup of Nations campaign.

Al Hilal is currently fourth in the table just behind former club Al Shabab.
