Career

[edit]

NEC Nijmegen

[edit]

In early April 2019, after making the first-team squad during the season, Musaba was one of four trainees to sign a new contract with NEC.[4] In the same month, he made his professional debut in an Eerste Divisie match against Volendam.[2]

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

[edit]

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]

Loan years

[edit]

On 24 August 2020, he was loaned to Cercle Brugge until the end of 2020–21 season.[9] On 29 August 2020, he made his Belgian Pro League debut as a substitute against KV Kortrijk, in a 1–0 home loss.[10]

On 31 August 2021, he was loaned to Heerenveen until the end of 2021–22 season.[11] 18 September 2021, he made his debut with the team in a Eredivisie 1–0 home win against Fortuna Sittard.[12]

On 29 August 2022, he joined Metz on loan with an option to buy.[13] On 3 September 2022, he played and scored for Metz B in a Championnat National 2 Group B match against Créteil in a 2–1 home loss.[14] On 12 September 2022, he made his Ligue 2 debut as a substitute against Guingamp, in a 6–3 home loss.[15]

On 4 January 2023, Musaba returned to NEC on loan.[16]

Sheffield Wednesday

[edit]

On 3 August 2023, Musaba joined EFL Championship side Sheffield Wednesday for an undisclosed fee.[17] He made his debut coming off the bench against Southampton on 4 August 2023.[18] He scored his first goal against Mansfield Town in the EFL Cup heading in from close range.[19] His first league goal came against Middlesbrough when Di'Shon Bernard cut into the box from the right and pulled back for Musaba to calmly slot the ball into the net.[20]

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]

Samsunspor

[edit]

During pre-season for the 2025–26 season, Musaba was heavily linked to Süper Lig side Samsunspor.[23] On 12 July 2025, he joined the club, signing a four-year contract for an undisclosed fee.[24]

On 28 August 2025, he made his debut with the team in a UEFA Europa League play-off match against Panathinaikos.[25] Three days later, he made his Süper Lig debut as a starter against Trabzonspor in a 0–0 away draw.

Fenerbahçe

[edit]

On 3 January 2026, Musaba joined Fenerbahçe on a four-and-a-half-year contract.[26] The deal was sealed by triggering his release clause of €6 million.[27] On 6 January 2026, he made his debut in the semi-finals of the Turkish Super Cup against his former club Samsunspor, and assisted both goals in a 2–0 victory.[28] On 18 January 2026, he played in his first Süper Lig match against Alanyaspor, scoring one goal and providing one assist in 3-2 away win.[29]
