Musa is Leicester’s fourth signing of the summer after goalkeeper Ron-Robert Zieler, defender Luis Hernandez and midfielder Nampalys Mendy.
The speedy winger is likely to wear his favourite no 7 jersey vacated by Dean Hammond, who recently moved to Championship side Sheffield United permanent.
“I give thanks to God and the club for making it a dream come true,” the ex-Super Eagles skipper told BBC.
He will join his new teammates in their pre season camp in Austria for preparations ahead of the start of the season before stepping out against FA Cup winners, Manchester United, in the Community shield.
Musa brings UEFA Champions League experience to the King Power Stadium after featuring in the competition for the past three consecutive seasons.
He will provide support upfront for Jamie Vardy after the England star committed his future to the club by agreeing a new contract despite a pursuit by Arsenal.
