LEICESTER have turned down a £12 million offer for Nigerian striker Ahmed Musa, according to reports.
The bid came from Saudi Arabian side Al Nassr, but the Foxes are keen to recoup £16.6m they spent on the 25-year-old two years ago, as reported by the Daily Mail.
The former CSKA Moscow attacker has struggled to settle in the Premier League, netting just twice in his 21 appearances for Leicester.
A return to the Russian club on loan last season saw him score six times in just ten games.
But the Foxes are willing offload the attacker after a decent World Cup campaign with Nigeria, if any club can match their initial outlay for Musa.
The Super Eagles were knocked out at the group stage, despite his brace against Iceland.
Musa could be joined out the exit door by fellow striker Islam Slimani, who has attracted interested from former club Sporting Lisbon.
The 30-year-old Algerian is another who has struggled to perform at the King Power Stadium, having joined Leicester in the summer after the club’s Premier League success in 2016.
While Musa is expected to leave permanently, Slimani has be linked with just a loan move to Portugal, having spent last season at Newcastle.
Should the pair leave, it would just the Foxes up to five departures so far, including Riyad Mahrez’s £60m move to Manchester City.
