How Fans Pushed Al Nassr To Sack Super Eagles Skipper, Musa
More facts are emerging as to how Ahmed Musa suddenly became clubless.
On Monday, Al Nassr confirmed that the Super Eagles captain was leaving.
The 28-year-old is now a free agent after parting ways with the Saudi Pro League outfit on ‘mutual terms’.
However, speaking with newsmen, Mohamed Hamdy Ahmed who writes for Merca Today in the Gulf State, gave more details on Ahmed’s departure.
“There was great anger that caused this decision. The fans are sad about the player’s performance with the team.
“The fans were not satisfied with the level of the player so the management took this decision,” Ahmed said.

The Nigerian winger in 58 appearances scored 11 goals and got 14 assists, while helping the team win the 2018/2019 Saudi top-flight diadem and the 2019 Saudi Super Cup.
But it was not enough to impress Al Nassr and its supporters. His contract will officially be terminated in January 2021, when he will likely return to Europe.
“I have information that he was given a paid leave until next January. And that the contract has not yet been terminated,” Ahmed added.
