Musa posted, "Let's go again,” he stated on his X (formerly Twitter) account. “Which of these teams do you wish for me to sign?"
Musa, Nigeria's top scorer at the FIFA World Cup with four goals, was part of the Super Eagles squad that reached the final of AFCON 2023 in Côte d'Ivoire, although he made no appearances during the tournament.
Despite his age, Musa has stated that he is not ready to retire and believes he still has more to offer to the game.
Musa's Previous NPFL Stint
This wouldn't be Musa's first return to the NPFL. In 2021, he made headlines by rejoining his boyhood club, Kano Pillars, on a short-term deal.
This move was seen as a heartwarming homecoming, reminiscent of his early career when he burst onto the scene as a teenage sensation.
During the 2009/2010 season, Musa who wants to end his career in the league scored an impressive 18 league goals for Kano Pillars, setting what was then a record in the NPFL and earning him the Top Scorer award.
This feat helped launch his international career, which saw him named to the 2014 CAF Team of the Year.
While fans eagerly await the announcement of Musa's next move, his return to the NPFL could provide a significant boost to the league's profile.
It remains to be seen which club will secure the services of the experienced international, but one thing is certain: Ahmed Musa's next chapter in Nigerian football will be decided with input from the very fans who have supported him throughout his career.
