Ighalo banned to join in training with united squad

Odion Ighalo has been banned from joining ole Gunnar’s side in training ground following his arrival from China – over concerns about the coronavirus.

The striker joined United from Shanghai Shenhua on February 1 on a six month loan deal, but was told to stay away from the club’s Carrington training complex.

The striker did not travel to Marbella with the rest of the United squad due to fears about him being readmitted to the UK in the wake of the coronavirus sweeping China and other countries that has already killed more than 1,000 people.

Now it has emerged United bosses also told Ighalo not to visit their training base as well.

Ighalo has been forced to train on his own at the GB Taekwondo Centre in Manchester – right next to rivals Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium
