He also added that he plans to bring value to the Nigerian League and improve its image on the continent.
“Anything that improves the image of Nigerian football is something that I strive to embark on and Kano Pillars holds a special place in my heart,”
“It’s the team that helped me become the professional footballer I am today, so this is more than just football but a very strong bond.”
Musah has enjoyed a sterling career so far. He is Nigeria’s top scorer in the FIFA world Cup and has had stints in the Netherland, England and Russia- where he scored 61 Goals in 184 matches for CSKA Moscow.
