Leicester target Musa set for Premier League move

CSKA Moscow boss Leonid Slutsky has revealed that Ahmed Musa will move to the Premier League this week.

The Nigerian striker has been heavy linked with Leicester City in recent times, while West Ham United and Southampton have also been credited with an interest, and it appears as though he will be heading to England according to his coach Slutsky.

"He'll be leaving Tuesday," Slutsky told Russian media on Sunday.

"And if you look at the way things are done over there you'll see he is a player just made for English football."

Claudio Ranieri's Premier League champions reportedly made a £23million bid for Musa in May and could now quite possibly be getting set to secure the services of the 23-year-old.
