Moses Named In Chelsea Champions League Roster, Uwakwe Eligible
Published: September 05, 2017
Super Eagles star Victor Moses is among the 24 players selected by the Italian coach and is classed as a homegrown player.
The UEFA definition of homegrown is a player who was trained for at least three years between the age of 15 and 21 at a club within the relevant national association.
Moses spent nine years at Crystal Palace, then transferred to Wigan Athletic a month after he celebrated his 19th birthday.
The promising midfielder Tariq Uwakwe, an England U19 international, has been omitted from Chelsea's A List, but can still be included on the B List, as he has played nonstop at the club for nine years.
