Former Nigeria star Okpala hails Moses Simon’s permanent Nantes move

Former Nigeria international and assistant coach Sylvanus Okpala has praised Moses Simon’s permanent move to Ligue 1 side Nantes.

The winger joined the La Beaujoire-Louis Fonteneau outfit last summer on a season-long loan deal from Spanish side Levante and delivered impressive showings.

Simon scored nine goals and provided eight assists in 30 appearances across all competitions to help Christian Gourcuff’s men finish 13th in the recently-concluded 2019-20 Ligue 1 campaign.
