After nine years as a Chelsea player, Victor Moses has finally left the club.
The Nigerian international has signed a two-year contract with Russian side Spartak Moscow.
Moses had an erratic career at Stamford Bridge, going from perennial loanee to a vital part of Antonio Conte’s squad that won the Premier League title in 2016 – 2017, exceling in a wing-back role.
However, with the subsequent changes of regime, he fell out of favour again, but then had loan spells with Fenerbahçe in Turkey, and Inter Milan, where he reuni9ted with Conte again.
Last season Spartak took him on another loan, and he scored four goals and provide 2 assists in 20 appearances for them.
Now they have been convinced enough to make the deal permanent.
Moses has the dubious distinction of being one of the few men to be sent off in an FA Cup Final, in Chelsea loss to Arsenal in 2017.
Andy is an exiled English football fan living in Cyprus. He loves all sports but football is his abiding passion, and he still has dreams every now and then about scoring the winning goal in a Wembley Cup Final, even though his playing days are long gone. He follows most major leagues, across Europe at least, and has a favoured team in each. When he’s not watching, listening, reading or downloading podcasts about football, he spend his time worrying about his beloved Arsenal.
