The Russian tactician was delighted to see Ahmed Musa grab the headlines for the right reasons, and compared Seydou Doumbia with the young Nigerian
On Friday, January 13, CSKA Moscow completed the signing of Ahmed Musa from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/VVV-Venlo-c40915 on a five-year deal.
Leonid Slutsky, the Dinamiki head coach, was quick to praise the Nigerian national and expressed his delight upon the player's arrival, adding that Musa has made the right choice to select the Armeytsy above the other available
options.
“He loves to attack and is capable of helping the team as a winger or an attacking midfielder. Ahmed is very, very fast, light-footed forward and this is his strongest quality. At the same time, Musa is well equipped technically. The
guy can quickly adapt to our league.” The UEFA Cup winner was quoted as saying.
The 19-year-old can expect first-team football just after his arrival, as the the Red-blue striker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vagner-c35793 Love, has reiterated his desire to leave the Moscow-based club.
Though CSKA have rejected Flamengo’s initial 6 million Euros offer, they are still thought to be willing to offload the attacker in the ongoing transfer window.
Musa’s arrival will see him pair up with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Seydou-Doumbia-c33175, and Slutsky believes that the duo can form a lethal partnership in the Russian top division.
However, the former Uralan Elista manager refused to compare Musa with Doumbia and revealed that it would be expecting too much from the young Nigerian.
“Although they will help each other on the pitch in a more or less similar role, I believe they can act quite differently.
"It is hard to imagine that at such an age, a player would come fully prepared and able to do everything.” The Russian Cup winner said.
The Koni are at the second spot on the Russian Premier League table after a good second league round. As it stands, they are in with a chance to win the title. To secure their hopes, however, they will have to surpass a stern 12-round
test when the league resumes in March 2012.
