Leicester City are hoping they are successful in their pursuit of Ahmed Musa in the summer.

The Foxes went after the CSKA Moscow forward in January but were unable to lure the Nigerian away from Russia.

However, it is believed that Claudio Ranieri is intent on signing Musa and will again pursue the 23-year-old at the conclusion of the current season.

Reports suggest that Leicester will offer £23m for Musa who has scored 10 goals in all competitions this season.

CSKA turned down bids of £15million and £18.7m from Leicester in the winter window but the Moscow outfit did not want to sell as they currently sit top of the Russian Premier League table and are preparing for Champions League Round of 16 clashes with Dinamo Kiev later this month.
