Leicester City player and
Nigeria international, Ahmed Musa, was arrested at 1am on Wednesday in response
to a domestic abuse complaint against his wife. Ahmed Musa, a £16million
forward with champions Leicester City, was nicked at his home in the early
hours of the morning.
His arrest, according Sun, came just hours after the Leicester City forward took to social media to post a snap of his wife Jamila with a message of love to celebrate her birthday on Wednesday.
His arrest, according Sun, came just hours after the Leicester City forward took to social media to post a snap of his wife Jamila with a message of love to celebrate her birthday on Wednesday.
He wrote: “On this special day, may you
have: All the joy, your heart can hold; All the smiles, a day can bring; And
all the blessings, a life can unfold. “May God bestow you with His bounties and
blessings! Happy Birthday to my Queen.” But neighbours said officers spent two
hours at the couple’s home after arriving at 1am in the late night doorknock.
Ten hours later, two plain-clothed women officers arrived at the £850,000
five-bedroom detached property in the city’s Countesthorpe area.
It is believed
they spent another two hours taking a statement from his wife Jamila, mum to
Musa’s two young children Ahmed Jnr and Halima. “A 24-year-old man was arrested
yesterday morning at his home address near Leicester on suspicion of common
assault,” said a spokesperson for Leicestershire police. A neighbour told The
Sun that, “Ahmed is a nice guy. He always has a friendly smile. I don’t know
anything about his private life”. Musa signed a four-year contract worth £16m
with Leicester in July 2016, making him the Foxes record signing at the time.
He has started only seven league games this season. He lost his place when
Claudio Ranieri was sacked and Craig Shakespeare took over the reins at
Leicester. A Leicester City spokesperson told the Daily Star that “Musa
cooperated with a police inquiry” regarding a disturbance in his house. “The
inquiry has since been closed and no further action is to be taken. We see no
reason for formal action internally, though Ahmed will be given the opportunity
to discuss the matter with football management when the squad returns,” said
the spokesperson. Musa and his wife Jamila have two young children together,
Ahmed Jnr and Halima.
