Throwback Thursday: Exclusive Photo Of Chelsea Star Moses After Trials With Nigerian Club
Published: July 13, 2017
It appears Chelsea star Victor Moses is a supporter of the French National Team after he was spotted wearing a jersey of Les Bleus while undergoing screening with local Nigerian club BJ Foundation.
The striker was successful at the trials and was subsequently appointed captain of the club’s youth team simply because he was the best player and highest goalscorer while Super Eagles teammate Elderson Echiejile was the skipper of their higher graded team, U16s.
Moses skippered BJ Foundation at several Youth Sports Federation of Nigeria(YSFON) organized tournaments and was the main man for them when they won the Oba of Benin Cup.
The 26-year-old was dubbed the poor man’s Ronaldo de Lima before he relocated to London from Nigeria.
Indeed, Victor Moses scored goals aplenty for Crystal Palace youth teams and won the Golden Boot at the 2007 UEFA European U-17 Championship before he was converted to a winger by the Premier League side.
