Nigerian international Simon Moses has signed for newly promoted Paris FC, agreeing a contract through 2028 after departing FC Nantes.
The 29-year-old winger arrives at the capital club following a notable season in Ligue 1 with Nantes.
Moses featured in 32 matches, delivering eight goals and ten assists—key contributions that helped secure the club’s survival in France’s top division.
A Proven Track Record Across Europe
Born in Jos, Nigeria, on 12 July 1995, Moses honed his skills at the GBS Football Academy before moving to Europe in 2014. He first caught attention at Slovakia’s AS Trenčín, earning a transfer to Belgian side Gent.
Subsequent moves included a stint with Spain’s Levante UD before joining Nantes, where he evolved into a dynamic midfielder capable of both scoring and creating chances.
At Nantes, Moses gained a reputation for his explosive speed and precise crossing, frequently operating on the flanks.
His knack for generating goals sparked interest across France, but he has opted to remain in Ligue 1 by linking up with Paris FC.
Paris FC’s Ambitious Summer Strategy
As a freshly promoted side, Paris FC have kicked off their summer window with Moses as their first major signing.
The club’s technical director expressed confidence in Moses’s ability to adapt quickly: “His experience in Ligue 1 and creative output make him the perfect addition for our attacking squad.”
Paris FC aim to consolidate their top-flight status and Moses’s arrival signals the start of a determined strategy to bolster the squad.
His versatility allows him to play on either wing or as a forward, adding depth and threat in the final third.
What Moses Brings to the Table
- Goal contributions: With eight goals and ten assists in 32 games, Moses has proven output at France’s highest level.
- Pace and penetration: Renowned for his acceleration and ability to beat defenders, his skill set suits Paris FC’s intent to play fast, direct football.
- Experience: Having plied his trade in Belgium, Spain, and France, Moses brings valuable exposure to different tactical systems and leagues.
Looking Ahead
Paris FC supporters will have their first opportunity to see Moses in action during pre-season friendlies starting in July.
Head coach and technical staff will aim to integrate him into varied attacking systems—whether as a wide option in a 4‑3‑3 setup or in a supporting role behind the central striker.
For Moses, this transfer offers a fresh chapter—a chance to lead a smaller club’s attack, shine as a key figure, and help Paris FC establish themselves among France’s elite.
If he replicates his recent form, Moses could prove pivotal in helping the team secure its Ligue 1 status this season.
Both player and club will now focus on a demanding summer schedule, with Paris FC hoping Moses’s arrival sets the tone for a competitive and vibrant season ahead.
