Musa became the highest-scoring Nigerian at the World Cup finals with four goals after netting a brace against Iceland in the 2018 Russia showpiece.
The former Kano Pillars striker is also the first Nigerian to score at two different World Cup tournaments as he scored twice against Nigeria in the 2014 edition in Brazil.
