“I didn’t tell anyone I am done with with Super Eagles” – Musa

Super Eagles captain has said he still has years to spend with the national team

Ahmed Musa has said he never informed anyone he has called time on his national team career.

The Fatih Karagumruk forward, according to Completesports said he was misquoted and the coaches still find him good for upcoming tournaments.

“I didn’t tell anyone that I am done with Super Eagles. I said I might consider retiring after the World Cup if Nigeria had qualified. The new coach has called me to come and play in the AFCON qualifiers and I cannot say no to him because it is a call to serve my country,”

“AFCON is next year and I am still active playing in Turkey and if the coaches find me good to be at the AFCON in Ivory Coast, I will gladly go and help my country to win it. I will always honor invitation to serve my country and give my best.”

Musa is in the Super Eagles camp ahead of the AFCON 2023 games against Sierra Leone and São Tomé and Principé.
