Musa Still Needed in the Super Eagles
Meanwhile, a former Nigeria international has called for the return of Ahmed Musa ahead of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers later this month.
According to Guardian, Edema Fuludu stated that the Super Eagles are in urgent need of a leader, and the Kano Pillars player is the ideal candidate. He said:
"The Super Eagles need results to get our World Cup campaign back on track, and I believe someone like Ahmed Musa has a crucial role to play.
"Many Nigerians excel in football, and it always saddens me when some people hastily conclude that players are too old to represent the national team."
The Super Eagles will face the Amavubi of Rwanda in Kigali on March 21 before encountering the Warriors of Zimbabwe in Uyo four days later per ESPN.
