Victor Moses has been absent from Fenerbahce's matchday squads since the opening day of the season when he ruptured his thigh muscle against Gaziantep FK.

Since then, the right winger has missed the remaining six Super Lig matches played by the Yellow Canaries.

Moses has resumed training with the Istanbul club but was not considered for Friday's game against Antalyaspor.

According to Turkish sports newspaper Fotospor, Chelsea's medical team contacted Fenerbahce before the game against Antalyaspor and advised them not to field the former Nigeria international.

It is believed that Moses will be fully ready to return to action in the next two weeks, that is after the international break.

The 28-year-old started the season on a fine note, scoring and providing an assist as Fenerbahce thrashed Gaziantep FK 5-0.

Moses's loan deal with Fenerbahce runs out at the end of the 2019-2020 season.
