Chelsea Receive Bad News From Fenerbahce On Ex-Super Eagles Star Moses

Published: August 20, 2019

Europa League holders Chelsea have received bad news from Fenerbahce on one of their players loaned out for the 2019-2020 season, Victor Moses.

It will be recalled that the former Nigeria international had to make way for Ferdi Kadıoglu in the 77th minute of Fenerbahce's 5-0 rout of Gazisehir Gaziantep FK on Monday and it has come to light that it wasn't a tactical substitution by manager Ersun Yanal.

Fenerbahce have released a statement saying a ruptured muscle was detected after the medical examinations that were carried out on Moses.

The Yellow Canaries have not disclosed the winger's possible return date but such injuries have a minimum recovery period of four weeks.

Moses was excellent in Fenerbahce's 5-0 hammering of Gazisehir Gaziantep FK, scoring and providing an assist in the resounding victory and received Team of the Week recognition from football statistics website Whoscored.

The 28-year-old has made 15 appearances in total in the Super Lig since his arrival in Turkey in the January transfer window.
