Ahmed Musa leaves the Army club

PFC CSKA and Leicester City agreed the transfer of Nigerian striker Ahmed Musa, as the website of the club informs.

Roman Babaev, General Director: “With a heavy heart we agreed to accept this offer. Over the past few years Ahmed became one of the key players for our club. At the same time we didn't want to put up obstacles for the player who is wanted by the reigning champion of England. Leicester made a great offer for the club and for Ahmed. Musa has made an outstanding progress during the last four and the half years with us, we shared many unforgettable moments and he fully deserved the step up to the next level. We wish him all the success in the future career”.

Musa made his debut for PFC CSKA on 21 February 2012 in the Champions League match against Real Madrid. He made 168 appearances for Red-Blues and scored 54 goals.
