During Granada’s preseason friendly against Al-Wehda of Saudi Arabia, Odion Ighalo was honored by his previous team.
After a scoreless ordinary period, Granada prevailed 5-4 in the penalty shootout.
During the 2009–10 season, Al-Wehda’s Ighalo was on loan to Granada from Serie A club Udinese.
In 2011, the forward made a triumphant return, this time lasting three years with the Nazaries.
