Officials at the Spanish La Liga side, Atletico Madrid, are preparing a massive £12 million bid for Nigeria international Odion Ighalo after they watched him five times this season.
Spanish media reported that Ighalo is a summer target to replace Jackson Martinez, who cost the club £25 million from FC Porto but has disappointed this season.
Ighalo, who played for Granada for three years, has been a major player for English Premier League side, Watford, scoring 20 goals to help the club secure promotion to the EPL last season and has notched 14 goals this term, africanFootball.com reported.
