The Nigerian is expected to join the Foxes
having turned down offers from the Saints,
Hammers and the Toffees
Ahmed Musa is set to complete a £16.6m move
to English champions Leicester City having
rejected offers from Everton, West Ham United
and Southampton.
The Nigerian starred for CSKA Moscow last
season and helped them win their 13th Russian
Premier League title, dusting off challenge from
FC Rostov.
The 23-year-old who boasts of 54 goals in 168
appearances for the Red-blues since his move
from Kano Pillars in 2012 is expected to be the
Foxes record signing. There, he will feature for
Claudio Ranieri’s men in their quest for a good
outing in next season’s Champions League.
"Everything has been finalised and Musa will be
in England for his medical on Wednesday,"
Musa’s agent Tony Harris told BBC Sport.
Earlier, CSKA Moscow boss Leonid Slutsky
confirmed that the Super Eagles’ vice-captain is
on his way out to the King Power Stadium.
"He'll be leaving on Tuesday," Slutsky told the
Russian media.
"If you look at the way things are done over
there, you'll see he is a player just made for
English football."
