Nigeria’s Ahmed Musa farmed out to CSKA on loan
Nigerian forward, Ahmed Musa has rejoined Russian club CSKA Moscow on loan from Leicester City.
The 25-year-old winger, who joined the Foxes for a club-record fee of £16 million in July 2016 has failed to impress, making 21 appearances with only two goals.
This season Musa failed to make a single appearance in the Premier League for Leicester but made just one appearance which was in the Carabao Cup.
On Tuesday, Musa completed a loan move back to CSKA until the end of the ongoing 2017/18 season.
Speaking on return to the Russian club, where he started his first stint in Europe from 2012 to 2016, Musa said:
“I am very happy and proud to be back. This is truly my home, champion team that fights for the top awards and occupies highest places. I am back to the red-blue family!,” CSKA quoted Musa on their verified Twitter handle.
In his first spell with CSKA, Ahmed Musa made 125 appearances, scoring 42 goals. He also won three Russian top flight league titles (2013, 2014, 2016), one Russian Cup (2013) and two Russian Super Cup titles (2013, 2014).
