''And so I couldn’t wait to come here. I spoke with Martin Skrtel. I played with him at Liverpool when I was on loan there.
''He told me how big this club is, how big the support is for the club and the passion of the supporters. He explained how everyone here loves football.
''I also spoke with Emenike. He also told me that I would be very happy here and that I should go.''
Moses will compete with former Premier League stars Islam Slimani, Roberto Soldado and Andre Ayew for the attacking positions at Fenerbahce.
