Ahmed Musa reveals why he left Kano Pillars to join Fatih Karagumruk

Former Leicester City forward Ahmed Musa said he joined Fatih Karagumruk on a permanent deal because of their philosophy and ambition.

The Nigeria captain completed a free transfer to the Istanbul club on Thursday and he penned a two-year contract with the option of an additional year.

The move ended Musa’s brief stay in the Nigeria Professional Football League where he has been maintaining his fitness at Kano Pillars.

Musa has now spoken out after finalizing the transfer.

“I was very impressed with the team’s philosophy, style of play and it’s clearly an ambitious club.

“I feel wanted and that’s what made all the difference. I want to repay that faith. I can’t wait to link up with my teammates and help the club achieve their ambitions,” Musa BBC Sport Africa.

Karagumruk were promoted to the Turkish top-flight in the 2019/2020 campaign, ending a 35-year wait for a return to the Super Lig.
