According to a report from reputable Turkish media outlet Fotomac, Huddersfield and Fulham are interested in signing Leicester City striker Ahmed Musa this summer.

The Nigeria international joined the Foxes from CSKA Moscow in the summer of 2016, for a fee believed to be worth in the region of £16.6 million, but he failed to establish himself at the King Power Stadium.

That is not to say that the 25-year-old does not still have a lot to offer at the very highest level, though.

Musa possesses pace in abundance, and his willingness to make direct runs in behind the opposition’s defence is an attribute that many clubs will find appealing.

Turkish publication Fotomac claims that he could be sold this summer, and that Premier League pair Huddersfield and Fulham are keen on prising him away form the east Midlands.

Quite how much Leicester will expect for his signature is unclear, but both the Terriers and Cottagers should not have any problem in tempting the Foxes into selling.

With the expansive football that is played at Huddersfield and Fulham, Musa would surely thrive at either club, and a move away from the King Power could help reinvigorate his flagging career.
