Victor Moses makes shock return to England, joins Luton Town

Luton Town, an English team, has confirmed the signing of Victor Moses, a former Nigerian international.

After departing his 2021–2022 club, Spartak Moscow, the 33-year-old became a free agent in the summer.

The transfer of the former Wigan winger could boost the Hatters in their pursuit of promotion, according to boss Rob Edwards.

“Victor is one we’ve been talking to for quite a while. He trained with us last week and played 60 minutes in a behind-closed-doors game, and we decided because we think he’s able to come in and help us.

“He gives us more strength in depth and versatility because he’s someone who can play both sides or as a number ten.

“He’s played for so many different clubs in different ways and shapes, and under different managers, so he’s tactically aware. We think he’s someone who can provide some really good competition for us,” he said.

Before moving to Russia, Moses had a successful stint with Chelsea.

During his time at Stamford Bridge, he won the Premier League and FA Cup in successive years in 2017 and 2018.

He was part of the squad that won the Europa League in 2012/13, but spent much of his nine years as a Chelsea player out on loan, playing for European giants Liverpool and Inter Milan, as well as domestically for West Ham and Stoke and in Turkey with Fenerbache.
