Nigeria’s most capped international, Ahmed Musa, is set to return to the Super Eagles as captain for the upcoming Unity Cup Four-Nation Tournament in London.
The announcement was made on Monday by Musa’s club, Kano Pillars, via a post on their official X account.
“Captain Ahmed Musa is set to lead the Super Eagles at the Unity Cup Four-Nation Tourney from May 26 31, 2025, at Brentford Stadium, London,” the statement read.
Musa has been in impressive form this season, recording eight goals and two assists in the 2024/25 NPFL campaign for Kano Pillars.
