Spartak Moscow Coach Satisfied With Signing Of Chelsea-Owned Wing-back Moses

Published: February 18, 2021

Spartak Moscow manager Domenico Tedesco says he is satisfied with the club's transfer business in the last summer transfer window.

2013 Africa Cup of Nations-winning winger Victor Moses was one of the players that strengthened The Red-Whites along with Aleksandr Sobolev.

Spartak Moscow were in the market for a right back with offensive attributes and eventually swooped for the Chelsea star after Tottenham Hotspur defender Serge Aurier turned down a move to the Russian Premier League giants.

Moses joined the Red-Whites in October 2020 for a loan fee of 300,000 euros and a purchase clause set at five million euros.

"I was initially pleased with the composition. And I am very pleased with the work that we have done with the team," Tedesco told reporters at a press conference on Thursday.

"From the very beginning, we talked about the positions that need to be strengthened - the right-back and the forward. We got Sobolev and Moses.

"Now we have a balance of youth and experienced players - everyone's eyes are shining."

Spartak Moscow will make a decision on whether to trigger the purchase clause in Moses' contract at the end of the 2020-2021 season, after consulting with the coaching staff.
