Manchester United has extended Odion Ighalo's loan deal until January 2021.
The Nigeria international joined United in January 2020, the deal expired on May 31, 2020, and United have now agreed to keep him at Old Trafford until January 31 next year.
Speaking on MUTV last week, United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said he was hopeful of securing a deal for the 30-year-old.
"The loan deal went until the end of May now, so obviously he's supposed to be going back," Solskjaer said.
"We're in dialogue. They've been great towards us, his club, and allowed him to play for his dream club.
"It's been a dream for him and hopefully he can finish off what he started, hopefully with a trophy for us."
