Chagnchun Yatai of China striker, Odion Jude Ighalo has come out with his personal yardsticks for how a top footballer can stay fit and stay in shape during holiday time away from club activities.
Sports247.ng can reveal that Ighalo is using the code to keep himself in top physical form, as he continues awaiting a new deal, which would take him away from the relegated Chinese club.
Ighalo, who has previously played in Europe with Lyn Oslo of Norway, Udinese of Italy, Granada of Spain and Watford of England, is said to be eager for a return to high-profile club action.
As he sets his sight on leading Nigeria’s attack at this year’s Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt, Ighalo is desirous of additional value at club level;, hence his desire not to play with Yatai in China’s lower division.
Reports indicate that Ighalo, who grew up in Ajegunle area of Lagos, will be in England this weekend to seal a deal with a mid-class club in the EPL, which should explain his personal drills before heading out.
He took to social media to post a video of his steps for fitness training and physical drills, which he hinted is the key to his ability to remain able for the tasks ahead and relevant in the scheme of things.
With only three words to highlight his drills, Ighalo stated: “Hardwork, Persistence And Consistency. #ighalo #Yatai #Nigeria.”
