Odion Ighalo signs new Watford deal until 2021

Odion Ighalo has signed a contract extension with Watford that commits the Nigeria striker to the club until 2021.

The 27-year-old joined the Hornets from Italian side Udinese in July 2014 and helped them win promotion to the Premier League in 2014-15.

Ighalo then scored 17 goals in 42 games last season as the Vicarage Road side finished 13th in the top flight and reached the FA Cup semi-final.

Walter Mazzarri's men start the new campaign with a trip to Southampton on Saturday.
