24-year-old Super Eagles striker, Ahmed Musa, who made a club record signing after his transfer to the Premiere League some months ago, has been arrested on suspicion of attacking and beating up his wife.

 

According to a report by Dailymail, the Leicester City FC footballer was quizzed at his £850,000 five-bedroom home in Countesthorpe, Leicestershire, just hours after his side's 2-0 win over Sunderland.

 

It was gathered that operatives of the UK Police received a domestic abuse complaint against the former CSKA Moscow forward who cost the Premier League club a record fee of £16.6million. 

 

No-one was in when they first arrived at the home so officers made inquiries with shocked neighbours in the upmarket neighbourhood. He was finally arrested at 1am on Wednesday by two plain-clothed policewomen after he returned home. 

 

The father-of-two who was grilled for allegedly beating his wife, Jamila and was later released without charge.

While speaking with a correspondent, a spokesman for Leicestershire Police said: 'A 24-year-old man was arrested yesterday morning at his home address near Leicester on suspicion of common assault.' 

 

A neighbour said: 'Ahmed is a nice guy. He always has a friendly smile. I don't know anything about his private life.'

 

Another man in the quiet road said: 'You never hear noise coming from the house. I had no idea the police had been called there.'

 

A Leicester City spokesman said: 'We are aware that Ahmed Musa has today cooperated with a police inquiry relating to a disturbance in the early hours of this morning.

'The inquiry has since been closed and no further action is to be taken. We see no reason for formal action internally, though Ahmed will be given the opportunity to discuss the matter with football management when the squad returns.'
