The 25-year-old Nigeria international moved from CSKA to Leicester for a club-record £18.2million fee in 2016.
Despite a promising start to his Leicester career, he has made just one appearance this season.
Since joining Leicester, he has struggled to make an impact at Leicester, scoring five goals in 33 matches.
Musa, who has 67 caps for Nigeria, will be hoping to play a big role in Nigeria’s World Cup campaign this summer.
