Football agent Tony Harris has dismissed rumours linking his client, Ahmed Musa with a move to West Ham. The agent said “I was frankly surprised by this rumour. Yes, he’s coming to England but Musa’s not joining West Ham.”
Earlier reports in Nigeria claimed West Ham have beaten the English Premiership duo of Leicester City and Southampton to the signature of 23 year old Nigerian forward.
Owngoalnigeria.com claimed that Southampton’s bid in excess of €20m was under consideration by the board of CSKA Moscow but the forward chose West Ham. They further claimed the Hammers had a bid of €25m accepted yesterday and said it was up to the vice captain of the Nigeria senior national team to agree personal terms.
Slaven Bilic tried to sign Musa in 2012 when he was manager of Locomotive Moscow but missed out on the forward who instead moved to CSKA Moscow from VV Venlo of Holland.
