Musa Toure (born 12 November 2005) is a professional Australian soccer forward who currently plays for the Danish Superliga team Randers FC.

Early life

Musa was born in Darwin, Australia, and is of Liberian heritage. His parents, Amara and Mawa Toure, escaped the Second Liberian Civil War in 1990, initially seeking asylum in Guinea before relocating to Adelaide, South Australia in 2004. Growing up in Croydon, Musa honed his football abilities alongside his elder siblings, Al Hassan and Mohamed, who are both professional athletes. Their father, a former semi-professional player in Guinea and Liberia, provided local coaching that nurtured their skills and competitive spirit. Musa began his youth football journey with Croydon Kings before advancing to the Adelaide United academy, where Croydon's U18 coach Steve Pepper identified him as the most talented among the brothers.

2020–2023: Early career

Musa joined Adelaide United in 2020 and was incorporated into the senior NPL squad for the 2020 NPL South Australia season. He appeared in seven matches during his debut season, making his first appearance on 25 July 2020 and netting his inaugural goal a week thereafter. Over the following two seasons, he accumulated six goals across 24 appearances and earned a pre-season invitation ahead of the 2022–23 A-League campaign.

His first-team debut came as a substitute on 9 October 2022 in a 1–1 draw against Wellington Phoenix. Musa secured his initial professional contract on 1 March 2023. After a brief period with the senior squad, he returned to the youth team where he played an influential role under coach Airton Andrioli, contributing both goals and assists throughout the season.

Prior to the commencement of the 2023–24 A-League season, Musa was promoted back to the senior squad but sustained an ankle injury during the Australia Cup. He made his comeback on 20 October 2023 during a 3–0 victory over Central Coast Mariners, where he provided an assist. On 29 October, he scored his first top-flight goal in a commanding 6–0 win against Melbourne City, marking him as Adelaide United’s fifth youngest scorer and completing a historic moment as part of the first trio of brothers to score for the club.

Randers FC

On transfer deadline day, 3 February 2025, Toure signed with Danish Superliga side Randers FC, joining his older brother Mohamed Toure at the club. His contract extends through June 2028.

Personal life

Musa was raised within a close-knit Islamic family deeply passionate about football. His father played professionally for AS Manee in Guinea's second division before transitioning to a teaching career. Musa is the younger sibling of Al Hassan and Mohamed Toure, both of whom have competed at league level for Adelaide United. His younger sister Miriam along with brothers Bilal and Idris participate in youth NPL competitions. Their uncle Ali was recognized as a prominent player within NPL South Australia. The brothers share allegiance to Premier League club Chelsea and aspire to play there professionally. Musa has earned the moniker "The Brazilian" due to his inventive playing style.

Regarding education, Musa and his older brothers attended Underdale High School located in Adelaide’s western suburbs.

In June 2023, Musa took part in a charity football match organized by Mohamed aimed at raising funds for children in Adelaide who lack access to football opportunities.
