Former Nigeria goalie Ike Shorunmu has hailed Ahmed Musa's move to join Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) club side, Kano Pillars.

Musa joined his old club, Pillars on a short-term deal on Tuesday after he left Saudi club, Al Nassr in 2020.

Nigerians and ex-internationals have lauded the move with many saying the league will be the biggest beneficiary of the move.

Speaking with a Lagos-based radio station, Shorunmu stated that Musa’s return to the league is a welcome development and it’s a great one for Nigerian football.

“His return to the league is a welcome development and it’s a great one for our football and Musa himself.

“We have to applaud his courage as well because not everyone will love to return home to play football again after several years in Europe.”

“Again, Maybe he’s trying to stay fit for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers, which is so also good for the national team ” he concluded.
