The 24-year-old Nigerian international was arrested by two plain-clothed police officers after he returned home. 

A spokesman for Leicestershire Police said: 'A 24-year-old man was arrested yesterday morning at his home address near Leicester on suspicion of common assault.' 

A Leicester City spokesman said: 'We are aware that Ahmed Musa has today cooperated with a police inquiry relating to a disturbance in the early hours of this morning.

'The inquiry has since been closed and no further action is to be taken.
