Extra: “You’re bigger than Messi” – Super Eagles star hailed by fans

Super Eagles winger contributed a great deal to Nantes win against OGC Nice at the French Cup final and overzealous fans have drawn parallels with PSG star, Lionel Messi

Moses Simon is still basking in the Euphoria of his latest achievement with Nantes and has revealed who helped them to the title at the majestic Stade de France.

In a tweet on Sunday, where he posted a picture of him clutching the trophy close to his chest, the winger captioned “Na God. always put your trust in him. Champ 🇫🇷 merci à vous,”

The cup victory means Nantes will be playing in Europe next season with Simon’s future at the club to be discussed at the end of the season.

 

After a stellar season that has seen him rise in prominence as one of the best wingers in France and arguably Nantes’ best player, Simon is believed to set his sights on making a Premier League switch.

A career that has seen him play in Slovakia, Belgium, Spain and France may see him move next to the Premier League.

The winger is yet to speak about his future but is deemed a prized presence at the Yellow Canaries.
