Manchester
United could
make a late bid to try and beat Leicester to
the signing of CSKA Moscow forward Ahmed Musa, with the Nigeria international
gaining interest in the Premier League.
Leicester
have already been linked with the 23-year-old, and are believed to have had a
£15m offer rejected by the Russian club as they look to hold out for a fee of
at least £18.9m.
But The Express reports that United are showing
interest in Musa ahead of Monday’s January transfer window deadline, and they
could launch a bid over the weekend to try and snatch the striker out of the
grasp of the Premier League leaders.
The
Nigeria national team captain Musa has scored 10 goals this season for CSKA
Moscow, and his arrival would give United manager Louis van Gaal more options
in attack, given that the club have scored the least number of goals this
season from the current top eight.
