My Take
Ahmed Musa earned a permanent place in my memory at the 2014 World Cup, becoming the first Nigerian to score twice in a single match, and against Argentina no less. From the streets of Jos to football's biggest stage, the pacy winger built a real career abroad. What I find most telling is that he now plays back home for Kano Pillars. Plenty of stars cling to foreign leagues for as long as they can; choosing to return and show younger players what is possible is the mark of a genuine ambassador. Balanced and quick, he is a player I quietly respect.
