Leicester City has reached an agreement for the transfer of striker Ahmed Musa from CSKA Moscow for an undisclosed fee, subject to Premier League and FA approval.

The 23-year-old has signed a four-year deal with the Premier League champions and is set to become the Club’s fourth signing of the summer, following the arrivals of Nampalys Mendy, Ron-Robert Zieler, and Luis Hernandez, reports the Leicester City website.

The Nigeria international insists that he is relishing the chance to show his quality and play for one of the biggest clubs in the Premier League.

‘I feel very happy joining Leicester City, for me it’s one of the best clubs and I feel very happy. I joined because it’s one of the best clubs in the Premier League and they are like a family. That’s why I joined Leicester City and I’m very excited,’ Musa said.

‘I look forward to seeing the fans in the new season and I will do my best to make them happy,’ he added.

Musa has enjoyed a productive season with CSKA Moscow last season, netting 13 goals from 30 appearances in the Russian Premier League to fire his side to the Russian title.

On the international stage, Musa has scored 11 goals in 58 games for Nigeria, including a brace against Argentina at the 2014 Fifa World Cup.
