Super Eagles player and Leicester City striker Ahmed Musa has been arrested and questioned by the police for allegedly beating his wife, Jamila, according to The Sun UK.The footballer was said to have been picked up by police from his home in Leicestershire around 1am on Wednesday, shortly after wishing his wife and “queen” happy birthday in an IG post.
The Independent reported that Musa was arrested and released hours after Leicester’s 2-0 triumph over Sunderland. But he did not play a part in the match.
“A 24-year-old man was arrested yesterday morning at his home address near Leicester on suspicion of common assault,” a spokesman for Leicestershire Police spokesman said.
Leicester City said that they were aware of the investigation, but confirmed that they will not be taking action against the player after the matter was closed.
“We are aware that Ahmed Musa has today cooperated with a police inquiry relating to a disturbance in the early hours of this morning,” a Leicester City spokesman said.
“’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.”
