Former Spartak Moscow chief tips Victor Moses to step into the shoes of injured Quincy Promes

Promes came off the bench in the goalless draw against Akhmat Grozny at the weekend but was replaced by Keita Baldé nine minutes into the second half after suffering an injury.
Netherlands international Promes has been Spartak Moscow's standout player this season, scoring 21 goals and registering nine assists in thirty outings across all competitions.

"Of course, Quincy is one of the brightest players of Spartak, " Kuzmichev.told RB Sport, via sportbox.ru.
"In attack, a lot depended on him. On the other hand, Moses has already started getting playing time. He should in this situation take over the duties of Promes."
Asked if he thinks Moses will now be a key player at Spartak, Kuzmichev responded : "We saw what he looked like before the injury. Then he sharpened and scored.
"During Quincy's absence, Moses must take over as the offensive leader."
In the next round of matches in the Russian Premier League, third-placed Spartak Moscow will host city rivals Dynamo.
