Man United After Musa

It seems that the Nigerian national football team’s captain is hot property, after reports are suggesting that Ahmed Musa is being hunted by none other than major English Premier League club, Manchester United.

Reports out of England are suggesting the the Red Devils have joined the race in signing the sought after Musa.

Musa, who is currently playing as a striker for CSKA Moscow, has apparently been approached by various high-ranking English Premier League clubs.

Some reports are even suggesting that Musa was made an offer by EPL table-toppers, Leicester City. It is believed that Leicester City offered Musa a contract in the region of £15 million.

However, it is believed that this offer was rejected by the Moscow-based club.

Now reports are suggesting that Manchester United have begun talks with Musa’s UK-based agent. However, this does not mean that the Leicester Foxes are out of the race, as they are expected to make another offer to Musa and his Moscow-based club.

There might be spanner in the works for both Manchester United and Leicester as Musa actually has contractual obligations to CSKA Moscow until 2019, where he is contracted to play in the Russian Premier League.

We will have to wait and see if any of the English Premier League clubs will be able to scoop Musa.
