Good for him. I just hope he starts scoring because that's what he is paid to do.

Even though he didn't want a move to China, I guess he should make the best of the move and try to work his way back to mainstream European football.

I only worry is the fact that Nigeria players g for Chinese clubs don't get the kind of publicity as others. Ighalo just like Mikel had no official unveiling with press conference unlike Oscar who was welcomed as a King.

I pity the guy for Watford, his misses in front of goal was alarming. Maybe China will ease the frustrations.

I Blame watford for this.

No top European club will go buy back a player from there no matter the form...... They can only move to United States or UAE.

while most africans and south americans hustle for money the white hustle for fame fame bringeth unlimited cash

If you saw what Hazard did to Mustafi, you would understand the reason why footballers prefer to go to China

Nonsense! It was Koscielny if you don't know how to watch football with open eyes! Hush your mouth

Ighalo! ighalo!! ighalo!!! what happened? exactly a year ago, when ighallo was very hot, a chinese club came calling for him with €300000 per week, he declined saying God is not in of him moving.He said he loves playing in the premiership week in week out and that cant be substituted for anything,despite pressure from team mates,he declined the bumper chinese deal but exactly a year after the hot ighalo is long gone,he lost his place in starting eleven and i must it ighallo is very lucky to get the second chinese chance.My point is after claiming God told him to reject the earlier chinese deal,who is now responsible for the chinese deal he signed now?there are some personal decisions religious people tend to credit God for when things are going right for them and later when things are not that good they keep mute .Anyhow wetin be my own. . .. . Ighalo go to china and multiply

Before the "Premier league " debut in the 90s, the English was a mediocre league until they rebranded and pumped money into it and bought players and managers from other European leagues.
The Chinese league managers have ambitions and the money to make it happen in the next 10yrs. When the Premier league run out of cash like the rest of European leagues did the Chinese league will be the hub of World class players.

God does not have anything to do with football

Exactly, last year he said God said he should not sign for the chinese club that came calling but it is just a personal choice not God's choice

Interestingly, the Chinese market is considerable with or without the rest of us. With a population of 1.5billion people who are mostly young middle class and financially well to do, the Chinese national market is more than the "global" market reach of most football leagues in Europe.
