Leicester City announces the signing of Ahmed Musa from CSKA Moscow

Football: Premier league champions Leicester City have completed the signing of Nigerian forward Ahmed Musa, 23 from CSKA Moscow on a four year deal on Friday.


Sources revealed the deal was worth around £15 million which will make it a club record for Leicester.

The Nigeria international will become the fourth signing of the summer for the Foxes after the capture of goalkeeper Ron-Robert Zieler, defender Luis Hernandez and Nampalys Mendy.
In a statement by Leicester, it said; 

"Known for his electric pace and clinical finishing, Musa enjoyed his most productive season for CSKA Moscow yet in 2015-16, netting 13 goals in 30 Russian Premier League games to fire them to the Russian title," 

"Blessed with natural speed and agility, Musa can operate either on the wing or upfront."

Musa said:

"I look forward to seeing the fans in the new season and I will do my best to make them happy."

"I joined because it’s one of the best clubs in the Premier League and they are like a family. That’s why I joined Leicester City and I’m very excited."
