Musa joined Leicester City in 2016 as a record signing for £16.6 million but failed to have an impact at the King Power.
He was loaned to CSKA Moscow in the winter of 2018 to get more playing time after he failed to get a Premier League game in his second season.
The 25-year old scored six times in 10 appearances at the Russian club, he also scored four goals in the 33 matches he played across two seasons.
Super Eagles striker, who was arguably Nigeria’s best player at the Russia 2018 World Cup, scored two goals against Iceland and one of his goal was ranked as the 8th best goal scored at the tourney.
