The club shared footage of their training activities on X and added the caption:

Musa teases possible NPFL return

This comes less than a month after Musa indicated interest in returning to the NPFL, where he had two spells.

The former CSKA Moscow star shared an image on his official X account containing the logos of all clubs in the Nigerian elite league and asked fans to choose which one they wished he joined.

When contacted, Musa disclosed that all details of his planned transfer will be confirmed in the coming days. He told Legit.ng:

Musa was part of the Super Eagles squad to the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in January, where Nigeria finished as runners-up.

Segun Odegbami warns Musa

Legit.ng earlier reported that Nigerian football legend Segun Odegbami has warned Ahmed Musa sternly about his proposed return to the Nigerian Professional Football League.

Odegbami warned the AFCON 2013 winner to desist from returning to the local league to end his career.

The 'Mathematical' claimed it is risky to want to use the adventure to get back into that national team squad for AFCON 2025.
