Eid Mubarak: Musa makes new friends in Russian prayer ground

Ahmed Musa CSKA

Ahmed Musa’s may be away at the FIFA World Cup in Russia but that didn’t stop him and some Super Eagles officials from observing the Eid Mubarak.

Friday marked the end of the holy month of Ramadan, hence ushering the festive Eid celebration.

Musa, 25, a known devout Muslim, first sent out wishes to his friends and family before storming the Eid prayer ground in Kaliningrad.

The Leicester City forward was literally mobbed by co-wishers who also came for prayers.

Musa is popular in the old Soviet nation having enjoyed two seperate productive spells with CSKA Moscow.

He will be expected to shine for the Super Eagles against Croatia on Saturday.
