Saudi Arabian Side Al Nassr Sign Ahmed Musa From Leicester After Impressive World Cup

Al Nassr of the Saudi Professional League have raided the Premier League for the second time this summer by taking Leicester striker Ahmed Musa to the Middle East, BBC Sport has confirmed.

Having signed Moroccan midfielder Nordin Amrabat from Watford last month, Al Nassr have flexed their financial muscles again by signing Musa and beating several European clubs to his signature.

Musa moved to the King Power Stadium in the summer of 2016, after Leicester had just been crowned Premier League champions. However, he scored just two league goals as Leicester spent most of the season mired in relegation danger.
