No January Move For Odion Ighalo - Flores

Odion Ighalo will not be leaving Watford in January. Coach Flores insists that the top scoring Nigerian will not be allowed to leave the club in January.

Watford manager Quique Sanchez Flores has said he does not expect Nigeria international Odion Ighalo and strike partner Troy Deeney to leave the club in January.

The former Nigeria U20 captain has netted 10 goals in the EPL, while Deeney has scored five goals.


"With Ighalo and Deeney, my expectation for sure is we are going to keep them," Flores declared.

"From the meetings I have had with the owners, we have not talked about the possibility of these players leaving in the middle of the season."

Before the start of the season, Ighalo, 26, turned down a “crazy” offer to move to China.

 Watford, who are seventh on the table on their return to the English top flight, host Liverpool on Sunday in continuation of the EPL.
