Leicester sign Ahmed Musa for club-record £16m: Striker pens four-year deal AHMED MUSA has completed his £16million move to Leicester.

GETTY23-year-old Ahmed Musa already has 58 international caps for Nigeria, with 11 goals to his name

The Foxes have signed the striker from CSKA Moscow on a club-record deal after breaking their previous top fee of £9.7m for Andrej Kramaric.

Claudio Ranieri has bolstered his attack following Leicester's incredible title-winning campaign in the Premier League last season.

Champions League football awaits the Foxes, and Musa has good experience of the competition from his time in Russia.

The 23-year-old has played in Europe's elite club competition in the last three seasons and netted 17 goals in all competitions last term.

Leicester have been tracking the player for some time, and according to the BBC, Southampton, Everton and West Ham were all interested too.

But the Nigeria international has now completed his move to the King Power Stadium and becomes Leicester's fourth summer signing.

Musa will provide support upfront for Jamie Vardy after the England star committed his future to the club by agreeing a new contract despite a pursuit from Arsenal.

And Musa could make his debut for the Foxes against Manchester United in the Community Shield against Manchester United.
