Leicester striker Ahmed Musa has joined Russian side CSKA Moscow on loan until the end of the season.
The 25-year-old Nigeria international was signed by the Foxes from CSKA on a four-year deal for a then club record of about £16m in July 2016.
However, he has struggled to make an impact at Leicester, scoring five goals in 33 matches.

Not a bad return given they played him as a winger, certainly was easy to figure out early on that wasn't his position, despite his lightning pace he couldn't cross to save his life yet was still played there week in week out-the fans knew, the manager apparently didn't
Certainly wouldn't be a bad player in a forward position with counter attacking promise like the LCFC team who won the league and an option if Vardy were injured
However LCFC`s idea of building on a title winning season was to buy loads of Strikers in a department that wasn't a problem moving forward, hence now Musa and Ulloa on loan and Lawrence moved on
