Super Eagles skipper Ahmed Musa is set to leave Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr FC.

Musa made 48 appearances and scored 10 goal while winning the Saudi League & Super Cup in 2019.



Musa played for Kano Pillars in Nigeria between 2009-2012 where he made 25 appearance, scoring 18 goals between 2009-2012.  He moved to Holland to play for VVV Velno in 2012-2013 donning the club's jersey 37 times and scoring 8 goals for the Dutch outfit.


He later played for CSKA Moscow in Russia before he moved to England in the summer of 2016 to sign for Leicester city for the club's record fee of £16.6m. The summary of that move would later be tag flop as Ahmed Musa was unable to find his bearing in the EPL where he was only managed to moster 2 goals in 21 appearances across all competitions for a period of 2 years. 


Musa became an instant hit when he returned to Russia on loan in January 2018 scoring 6 goals in just 10 appearances. He eventually 

moved to the Middle East in Saudi Arabia and sign for  Al Nassr in the summer of 2018

Micheal Nsien, FC Tulsa Head coach "The youth teams is meant to be that way (a conduit for the senior national team). You have to have culture that buys in or accept a job based on that quality of transition.
