Ahmed Musa completes a record £16m move to Leicester City from CSKA Moscow

Leicester City has signed Nigeria international Ahmed Musa from CSKA Moscow on a four-year contract for a club-record fee of around £16m. Musa is Leicester’s fourth signing of the summer after goalkeeper Ron-Robert Zieler, defender Luis Hernandez and midfielder Nampalys Mendy.

Musa, 23, joins the Premier League champions after helping CSKA win the Russian title and is now expected to join his team-mates at the pre-season training camp Austria next week.

In four-and-a-half years at CSKA Moscow, Musa scored 54 goals in 168 games. Last season was the best of his career in Europe, as he scored 18 goals in 44 appearances across all competitions.

He arrives at Leicester City with much-needed Champions League experience to his name, having played 24 matches in the competition.
