Nigeria forward, Ahmed Musa, has received plaudits from an unlikely fan in Arsenal legend, Thierry Henry, ahead of the start of the Premier League.
Musa, 23, joined English champions, Leicester City, for a club-record £16million from Russian side, CSKA Moscow.
The Super Eagles star showed glimpses of his qualities by scoring twice against Barcelona in the International Champions Cup and setting up Jamie Vardy in the Community Shield.
And Henry, 38, who himself is both Arsenal and France all-time top scorer, believes the Nigerian will be a hit just like him in the Premiership.
“Musa can be the type of player who can change the course of a game at any moment,” Henry told Sky Sports.
“He is the type of guy who comes on when everybody’s tired and takes advantage of it.”
Musa will begin his Premier League adventure on Saturday by visiting KCOM Stadium to face newcomers, Hull City.
