Manchester United are 'relaxed' when it comes to the future of Odion Ighalo, according to Sky Sports News Reporter James Cooper.

Ighalo joined United on loan from Shanghai
Shenhua in January and scored four times in his first eight appearances for the 20-time English Champions.

As it stands, the Nigeria international will return to his parent club at the end of May, but the Red Devils are allegedly keen to extend the agreement to potentially cover the remainder of the 2019-20 season.

According to Cooper, the fact that Marcus Rashford has now overcome a back injury means that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side are not panicking potentially losing Ighalo at this stage.

"As far as Ighalo goes, I think there's a relaxed mood from Manchester United," said Cooper.

"The facts of the matter are that his contract comes to an end next Friday, May 31.

"I think Shanghai Shenhua would like the player back in China playing for them.

"The relaxed mood that comes from Manchester United is that Marcus Rashford is now fit and so there is less need for Ighalo. But all things being equal United would like to keep him."
