Odion Ighalo is willing to risk a new £75m contract with Shanghai Shenhua to remain with Manchester United for the rest of the season.
Ighalo joined United on a short-term loan in January and has proved a huge success after scoring four times in eight appearances.
His deal expires this weekend and he is wanted back in China, where Shenhua are gearing up for the start of the new season next month, after the start date in March was put back due to Covid-19.
But Ighalo remains desperate to see out the Premier League campaign with United, who are keen to retain his services so he can provide attacking cover for Marcus Rashford.
