Ighalo completes £20m switch to Changchun Yatai



Nigeria International and Watford's Odion Ighalo has completed his move to Chagchun Yatai in the Chinese Super League. The fee is believed to be £20m with add-ons potentially taking it up to £25m.
Ighalo leaves with the best wishes of every Watford fan after netting 20 times in the Championship as the Hornets won promotion to the Premier League in the 2014/2015 campaign.


He followed that up with some memorable goals in the Premier League, and also scored in the FA Cup quarter-final win at Arsenal last March.



Unfortunately Ighalo struggled for form this season, scoring just two goals and failing to find the net since September in the 4-2 win at West Ham.



Overall he made exactly 100 appearances for the Hornets, his last in the 2-2 draw at Bournemouth ten days ago, scoring 39 goals.
