Odion Ighalo admits he wakes up every morning excited being a Manchester United player.

The striker is currently on-loan from Shanghai Shenhua.

"I don't know how to explain it because if you're not there you don't see the excitement," he told Juliet Bawuah.

"Every time I'm excited to wake up in the morning, go to training and see the lads. I'm enjoying it, even though it's hard I have a smile on my face.

"It's me that is playing for one of the biggest clubs in the world, it's me that's playing for the team I supported as a young boy back in Nigeria in the ghetto when I watched them on TV.

"There's no way you can explain that, only if you open my heart and see how happy I am. Every day that comes by is a day for me to be happy and rejoicing at going to training."
