Victor Moses Hoping To Repeat 2013 Success As Fenerbahce Include Winger In Europa League Squad

Published: February 05, 2019

Fenerbahce are among the 32 teams that have submitted their updated squad lists to UEFA for the knockout rounds of the Europa League following the close of the January transfer window.

Chelsea loanee Victor Moses has been included in the squad of the Yellow Canaries and will play with the number 8 jersey.

The former Nigeria international was registered on List A as a non-locally trained player because he spent all his career with English clubs before switching to Fenerbahce last month.

Although Moses appeared in two matches for Chelsea against Vidi and BATE Borisov in the group stage of the Europa League, the reason why he has been included in Fenerbahce's squad is because clubs can register a maximum of three new players for the knockout rounds.

The 28-year-old would be hoping for a repeat of the 2012-13 season when he won the Europa League in his first season at Chelsea.

Moses scored in four consecutive matches against Rubin Kazan and FC Basel in the quarterfinals and semifinals but was a non-playing substitute in the showpiece against Benfica on May 15, 2013.
