Ahmed Musa has officially announced his retirement from international football.

Musa, currently serving as the General Manager of Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) side Kano Pillars, shared the news on social media on Wednesday.

“I wore this badge with pride for 15 years. From a 17-year-old boy answering every call to becoming the most capped Super Eagle with 111 appearances. AFCON champion. Nigeria’s highest World Cup goalscorer. Captain. Servant. Believer. I gave everything. Thank you Nigeria… my heart will always beat green,” he wrote on X.

The 33-year-old made his debut for the Super Eagles on 5 September 2010, in a 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match against Madagascar.

Musa was also part of the team that clinched the AFCON 2013 title in South Africa and remains the only Nigerian to score more than once in a FIFA World Cup match.

"This represents a significant development in our ongoing coverage of current events."
