He scored seven goals and made five assists in 25 Eerste Divisie appearances in the 2019–20 season,[5] which was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic and which was his first full season.

Monaco

In June 2020, Ligue 1 club Monaco announced the signing of Musaba on a five-year contract.[5][6] The transfer fee paid to NEC was reported as €2-2.5 million.[7]

On 3 August 2021, he made his debut as a late substitute in a UEFA Champions League qualifying third round first match against Sparta Prague in 2–0 away win.[8]

Musaba enjoyed a strong debut season and chipped in with eight goals in all competitions, seven in the Championship, and five assists.[21] Following the end of the 2024–25 season an option was taken on his contract.[22]
