Nigeria international winger Moses Simon has been in his best form in the last four games for French Ligue 1 side Nantes making a total of six goals contribution in games against Monaco, Marseille, Clermont Foot and FC Lorient, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
Simon had an assist against Monaco and Marseille respectively, a goal against Clermont Foot before picking up two assists and a goal last weekend against Lorient.
His form has won him admiration from on loan Arsenal winger Marquinhos, who is at Nantes on a season long loan deal as part of the process of his integration to European football and also his development following his move from Brazil last summer.
He was at English Championship side Norwich City for the second half of last season. Now at Nantes, where he has played in five games and has an assist says he is still in the process of learning at the Ligue 1 side pointing at the 28 year old Nigerian as someone he is learning from.
” It has been good so far. With the language and the food no longer a problem like it was when I first arrived. The football education too has been good and it’s nice to see and learn from the senior players like Moses Simon who is a winger like me. I am learning to be better for the future”, he said while speaking on his adaptation at his new base.
