Anthony Musaba (born 6 December 2000) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a forward for Eredivisie club SC Heerenveen, on loan from Monaco.

Career[]

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 Nijmegen.[3] In the same month, he made his professional debut in an Eerste Divisie match against FC Volendam.[1]

He scored 7 goals and made 5 assists in 25 Eerste Divisie appearances in the 2019–20 season,[4] which was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic and which was his first full season.

In June 2020, Ligue 1 club AS Monaco FC announced the signing of Musaba on a five-year contract.[4][5] The transfer fee paid to NEC Nijmegen was reported as €2 to 2.5 million.[6]

Personal life[]

Musaba was born to Congolese parents. His twin brother Richie is also a professional footballer.[1]
