Released Manchester United striker Odion Ighalo is in advanced talks to sign Al Shabab.

The Nigeria international completed his loan at United last week from Shanghai Shenhua and now has permission to hold talks with Al Shabab.

Foot Mercato says his agents, including Jean-Willy Ngoma, are in negotiations with the Saudi club, with the proposal tabled attractive to the Nigerian.

Ighalo has other offers, but Al Shabab remains the priority.
