Nigerian footballer Victor Moses signs two-year contract

Former Nigeria winger, Victor Moses, has signed a contract extension with Spartak Moscow, the club has announced.

The new deal will keep him at the Russian club until 2O24.

Moses linked up with Spartak Moscow on a permanent deal in July 2021 after spending the previous campaign on loan at the club from Chelsea.

“We’re pleased to announce that Victor [Moses] has signed an additional contract extension that will keep him at the club until 2024,” the club wrote on their Twitter handle.

“Well deserved.”

Reacting to the announcement, Moses expressed his happiness on extending his stay at the club and promised to help the club achieve their objectives.

“I can say with full confidence that Spartak is my club,” said the former Chelsea winger as quoted by the club’s social media pages.

“I’m happy to be part of the red-white family until at least 2024.

“I will continue to help the team achieve their goals. I fell in love with everyone at Spartak and I’m really happy to be here!”

Moses began his career in the Championship with Crystal Palace, before his performances caught the eye of Wigan Athletic, where he made his Premier League debut in 2010.

After two years, his game had improved to the extent that European champions Chelsea were interested, and he signed for them in the summer of 2012. Despite ten goals in all competitions during his first season, he spent his second season on loan to Liverpool, his third on loan at Stoke City and his fourth on loan at West Ham United.

Moses was recalled to Chelsea for the 2016–17 season where he made 34 appearances as Chelsea won the Premier League. After failing to impress during the next campaign, Moses spent subsequent loan spells with Fenerbahçe, Inter Milan and Spartak Moscow in the following seasons.
