CSKA Moscow sporting director Roman Babayev confirms that the club want to sign Leicester City forward Ahmed Musa on a permanent basis.

CSKA Moscow sporting director Roman Babayev has suggested that the club could face competition for the signing of Leicester City forward Ahmed Musa.

After failing to make an impact at Leicester City, the Foxes loaned Musa to CSKA Moscow during the January window and the Nigerian international has scored seven goals in 16 appearances.

Babayev has acknowledged that CSKA want to sign Musa on a permanent deal, but hints that the Russian outfit are not the only team in contention for the attacker.

The CSKA chief told Championat: "We would very much like him to stay with us but if Leicester will have a more profitable financial offer on hand than we can offer, then it will be difficult.

"Surely, they want to sell the player, and not loan him again."

Wolverhampton Wanderers have been linked with an approach for Musa, who has scored just twice in 21 Premier League outings for Leicester.
