Newcastle United are eyeing Manchester United striker Odion Ighalo.

Sky Sports says Newcastle are interested in making a shock transfer move for Ighalo once their £300million takeover is completed.

United are keen to extend their loan deal so the 30-year-old can help them if the Premier League restarts amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Shanghai Shenhua will only let Ighalo stay at Old Trafford if they pay £20million to make the deal permanent though.

And Newcastle could hijack them in signing the striker once their takeover officially goes through.
