Odion Ighalo has to wait a little longer to train with his Man United teammates, after he was advised not to travel to Spain for the training camp due to the coronavirus.
The 30-year-old Nigerian forward flew to Manchester from China last weekend after signing on loan from Shanghai Shenhua, but because of fears the coronavirus outbreak, Spain might refused him an entry to the country.
“He might have liked to have come with the players and got to know them,” manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer told MUTV.
“But the risk, we don’t want to take.”
There are some good news for Man United as midfielder Scott McTominay and defender Axel Tuanzebe will join the training camp after missing out with long-term injuries.
United will travel to fourth placed Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Monday, 17 February.
