Nigeria Star Moses Aiding Ola Aina Rise To Prominence At Chelsea
Published: August 27, 2016
England youth international Ola Aina has admitted that Victor Moses is among the players pivotal in his development at Chelsea.
The 19-year-old is a fullback and usually operates behind the Nigerian winger if both are on the pitch at the same time.
“With Pedro it’s good because he listens to me and I listen to him, there isn’t an age barrier in terms of our understanding,” Ola Aina told chelseafc.com.
“It’s similar with Victor Moses, he’s always encouraging me to play my natural game and not to worry if I make a mistake.
“I like playing with Willian as well because nothing worries him and he never gets angry, I enjoy working with him.”
London-born Aina made his competitive debut for the Blues as they beat Bristol Rovers in the Football League Cup on Tuesday, having impressed manager Conte during pre-season.
