Manchester United’s resourceful loanee forward Odion Ighalo took to Twitter platform on Friday to mingle with football fans and add a dash of excitement to his day amid the stay home mode the world is into due to the Coronavirus pandemic, Completesports.com reports

All that the former Nigeria international needed to ignite an exciting session on his Twitter handle, @ighalojude, was a Tweet that: “I’m officially bored, I miss football”

Ighalo, 30, had scorched an impressive trail scoring four goals in eight games for Manchester United as a loanee from Shanghai Shenhua before the Covid-19 scourge forced the Premier League into a hiatus.

Below are the excerpts from Ighalo’s lively conversation with his followers on Twitter.
