Leicester to announce £18m Ahmed Musa deal this weekend

Leicester City will confirm the signing of Ahmed Musa on the weekend, according to reports.

The Nigerian striker arrived in England on Thursday to undergo a medical with the Premier League champions and it is understood that the deal will be finalised in the next day or so.

The Daily Mail is of the belief that Leicester will pay Russian club CSKA Moscow £18million for the 23-year-old who is hoping to link up with his new teammates on the club's pre-season training camp in Austria next week.

Claudio Ranieri has after Musa for some time now and it looks as though he has finally captured his man who has scored more than 50 goals for CSKA since joining from VVV-Venlo in 2012.
