The erstwhile Leicester City and CSKA Moscow winger almost joined Premier League side West Bromwich Albion back in January, but the deal collapsed due to his wage demand.

“I am very happy for Ahmed Musa to be able to play again with his old club of Kano Pillars,” Rohr told journalists.

The Franco-German coach concluded that joining Pillars will allow the Super Eagles Captain to keep his shape ahead of the FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
