Super Eagles and Al Nassr forward, Ahmed Musa has vowed to come back stronger from his latest injury setback, SportingLife.ng reports.
The Nigeria international reportedly sustained a thigh injury in training and subsequently missed last Thursday’s 2-2 draw against Al Faisaly FC in a Saudi Pro League division clash.
The 26 year old, who was not listed in Tuesday’s Kings Cup of Champions Round of 32 clash against Al-Ansar at the Prince Faisal bin Fahd Stadium, took to his Instagram page earlier to express optimism of his quick return from injury.
“Will be back stronger,” Musa wrote alongside a picture he posted via @ahmedmusa718.
Since arriving Saudi Arabia from English club, Leicester City, the former CSKA Moscow forward has been a big hit in the oil-rich country.
After enjoying a good outing in 2018, the pacy forward started 2019 on a blazing note, scoring two goals as Al Nassr, romped to a 6-0 win over Al Jndal in one of the King Cup ties on the 3rd of January to take his tally to five for the Riyadh-based outfit.
