Talking to talkSPORT, Owen said;
“I think Ighalo has been a good fit for Man United and when you sign players you have got to get the right fit,”
“It is not always about getting the best name. It is about getting the guy that you do not have that you need.

“He has given them something different.
“Hopefully he stays, but there is the whole Sanchez situation when he comes back, Martial and Rashford, he is fit as well, Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba – you have got to get them all into a team, with Daniel James as well.
“So he has been good, really good. I am sure they will try, if it is sensible, keep him longer. I would be surprised if he left.”
