Ahmed Musa
is close to agreeing a one-year loan move to Hull.
Hull have
held talks with Leicester City this week and are confident of finalising a
move
before the deadline on Thursday.
This would
see Musa reunite with Tigers boss Leonid Slutsky, who the City forward played
under for four years at CSKA Moscow.
The
24-year-old has struggled to impress since his £16million move to Leicester
last summer, and has scored just five goals in 33 appearances.
Musa did
find the net in the Carabao Cup victory at Sheffield United, but had endured a
torrid first-half performance at Bramall Lane.
“He is not
our player but, of course, every coach is better working with players he knows
and I worked with Musa for four years,” said Slutsky. “I know him and he knows
me.”
Musa’s
finest performance for Leicester still remains the International Champions Cup
game against Barcelona, where he scored twice.
Musa also
scored twice in the FA Cup victory over Everton last season.
